Thank you 1,000 times. I bought a piano 23 years ago and am terrified of it. Instead of encouragement, I got ridiculed by family, friends and even a music teacher. Now that I have found you and when no one is around to hear me, I am playing this first lesson over and over again at 70 years of age. It made me so happy, I cried. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I will continue to use your lessons every day.
I have been a criminal spending over 10 years of my life behind bars for fighting and being an idiot. I sat behind a drum kit and learned to play not very well but I can play. I never in a million years thought I would be able to play piano especially not enjoy it. When I tell you this I want you to believe me, the feeling I felt learning to play this was indescribable. I felt like crying. To me, this world was so far away. Now I’m sat in front of my keyboard enjoying something I never thought possible. Thank you. You’ll never know how much this has done for me.
I’m 24 and I’m in college. Since I was a kid I always wanted to be a pianist and we grew up poor so I never wanted to burden my mom with asking her for one. But after i got my associates I decided to get myself a 61 key Yamaha keyboard and your article helped me understand how to play. I feel like a child again. Thank you.
i’m 28, i have wanted to learn piano my whole life. my partner just bought me a beautiful keyboard and this is the first article i have ever watched to learn piano. i am amazed how simple it was to learn the chords, this article is such a great help for me and i believe you have really set me up with great foundations for this new adventure i am embarking on. thanks so much to you. this is amazing. i am so excited.
Wow, I started taking piano lessons 2001. I think I lasted a week. I started again May 2023. It seemed like climbing Mt. Everest. I was getting frustrated. The instructor was great. It was just I saw a long a tedious journey ahead of me. I googled piano lessons and your youtube article popped up. OMG I’m motivated again and you gave me hope. I look forward to learning from you. Thanks. You are blessing me.
Lessons are expensive and disruptive to working parents, Youtube is such a blessing. Our daughter is homeschooled at 6 and if we paid for lessons for everything (piano, Spanish, Muay Thai, jiu jitsu, etc.) and had to travel for all of it we couldn’t get what’s best for our daughter. With stuff like this online you’re truly changing lives!
This is great! I’m 46 years old, I’ve been playing drums since the age of 11, and I’ve always wanted to learn the piano, and this article is really helpful me locate the notes and the beginner pieces are really breaking in my fingers. I can play fast and technical stuff on the drums, but this is a new beast to take on for me. It’s a challenge, but I love music, so I’m enjoying it! Thank you! I will keep practicing too!
I bought a full scale electric piano from my nephew recently. I did a search for piano lessons. This one came up. I have been a musician playing stringed instruments for many years. I’ve always wanted to learn to play piano, and this article series is just what I need. My daughter is learning too. Thanks for these articles. They are helping me immensely.
Hi, I am from India . I have learnt classical Carnatic music for a few years. After coming to the USA, I wanted to learn keyboard (I tinker with it, play songs but without harmony) I wanted to learn chords but was intimidated by the score sheets – you website is awesome for people like me to learn chords without having to learn reading notations !! 🎉
Zach, I wanna thank you so much! I am a beginner and absolutely loving your articles – your generous, amazing and helpful content made simple and fun – true mastery on your part. Too many make it complicated I agree. Hey Zach, your light and passion shines through! Thank you, so grateful to have found you. Keep up this amazing creations and teachings. much love, Thuvaraka x
Bro! I’m 47yrs old and was really intimidated to get started. Guitar player for 33yrs, but keys are intimidating. Bought a reasonable setup and found this article. You have eased my anxiety about getting started. Totally played along with you. My face was literally 😮😮😮 thank you. Like and subscribed!!!
Just a few days ago I’ve bought myself a Synthesizer Casio keyboard, because I decided to learn to play the piano/synthesizer. So it will me be busy for a while aside being bored what to do and buying stuff, look at it and put it aside. Now I can be busy for days, weeks, months and maybe years. Now I find your article to play a melody as a beginner and it worked for me. Thank you for this article, because some friends are impressed by the first results of playing the piano/synthesizer.
Thanks Zach, Really like your teaching method. I just turned 65 & got a keyboard controller. This is what I should have done years ago. (I don’t want to say bucket list, it’s too depressing 🙂 I’ve taught guitar & bass for 45 years & came to the conclusion students need to learn to play, hear & feel music first. Once they have achieved this learning to read music, (traditional notation) is easy. When parents play with their children they teach communication first. (Not just speaking but listening also). Once that is happening then & only then can they teach them to read & write. Thanks again, B.F.
I have been playing guitar for over 40 years and dabbled with keys when I was a kid, but lost interest. Now I want to get back into keys and this lesson is a great first step to get familiar with the keyboard. The last bit of advice on this article holds true in learning the guitar as well. Do NOT mimic or try to figure out a song based on chord charts or tabs. You will not learn the song without any feel and you are learning someone else’s interpretation of the song which may be completely wrong. Learn your chords and their positions and you can get your favorite songs down so much easier.
I always wanted to learn an instrument and I had the opportunity to learn a little bit of the recorder and piano while in elementary school but never continued to practice once the class was over. Here I am at 26 years old going through a mentally tough time. I decided to deactivate social media and spend my free time working on myself and learning an instrument is one of the ways. Thank you for making it easy! I’m excited to see the progress after a few months
I have tried perusal so many articles about piano to grasp a basic concept to understand using acronyms— Zach has been the best. You use simple language to make me remember and try to memorise and understand the patterns— Additional the energy you put in each articles is quite exciting.. i dont know how times pass by.. earlier I used to spend more time on insta which adds no value but now I am finding something productive where i feel am making good use of my time— thank you so much for yhe efforts.❤
Thank you so much for this informative and easy to understand and apply article! I’ve always thought i am not musically inclined. I can’t read notes what more play musical instrument but recently I’ve been intrigued with the piano. At 38, I am deliriously happy I managed to play some tunes from this article tutorial and it was my first time ever touching the piano! Something I thought was impossible before. I’ll keep practicing and learn other techniques and chords as I progress. Thank you so very much for this article!!!
My Mom passed away earlier this year…she always wanted me to learn to play the piano – even buying a beautiful piano for my sisters and me when we were jst kids. That piano is coming to my home…and at 53, I’m going to learn how to play – I always regretted never learning how to play. I am so grateful for your articles – thank you.
I am coming back with your lessons. I had to stop because of other commitments. Now I have a serious problem with my fingers and my doctor has recommended that playing the piano would help me to a great extent. So you will help me with your simple and fast procedure. Thanks for your interesting method!
I’ve taken piano lessons when I was young, but I didn’t like to practice everyday and stopped lessions 2-3 years later. However, now I am became a senior citizen and try to playing keyboard. I can see that your teaching method is very simple and easy, so I would like to learn with you and play it rest of my life. What kind of keyboard you would recommend to buy for me?
Thank you so much for all of your articles! You are an outstanding teacher! I played a little bit when I was in elementary school and forgot everything. Now as an adult I wanted to get back into piano. I stumbled across your YouTube website and now I can play a couple of simple songs that sound really impressive! Thank you so much again!
Came across this by accident scrolling at lunch. I’m going to try this as soon as i get home. No piano, but i have a keyboard. Learning to play the piano is on my bucket list. I’m 57 so i need to get started. I wish my mom didn’t let me quit lessons when i was little. I’ve made my mind up that I’m going to play Christmas toons by November! Wish me luck. 😊
Man this is very impressive for a first lesson. Watched alot of tutorial this is by far the most interesting. Eases into finger exercise and then teach a good patter. Key is patience and not rushing it. It a good tutorial I am gonna practice this whole week until I am as good as the last part of the article
New sub here. I’ve been playing piano/keyboard for over 20 years. I stepped away from it for at least 3 of those years. I play primarily by ear and to be honest, I hate sheet music lol. After perusal your article I got inspired to take my keyboard out of the closet and start playing again. Mainly for entertaining friends and family as well as myself….Thanks.
Classical Music is the gold standard Everyone that’s ever heard Moonlight Sonata (at least for me I felt like I MUST BE ABLE TO PLAY THIS EVEN JUST A LITTLE BIT) so My advise is start off with this method then learn sheets because theirs so many songs that are not Classical and still amazing to bust out on a Piano
OK. I have to say. If you’re just looking to start playing and not too serious about going beyond that, this is what you need. Now, I haven’t played piano, not seriously, anyway, in about 35 years-ish. That said, I started like most people: I was a kid, my mom wanted me to learn something, a lady in town took piano students for some extra money, mom bought a piano, we both took lessons. I started out, in the 3rd grade, with a music theory book and a companion sheet music book. I could play simple songs reading sheet music by the end of the week. I started playing saxophone in the 6th grade and played that through 12th grade. Somewhere around 14 years old, I started playing guitar (and bass sometime after that). Now, I can play guitar, and pretty darn fast at that (I was really into thrash metal as a kid). HOWEVER! I never learned how to play guitar by reading sheet music. I only know basic chords on the fret board (although I’m sure I’ve played most chords and variations of them, just w/o knowing which ones I was playing). Trust me, TAKE THE TIME TO LEARN SHEET MUSIC! If you plan on playing with a group, sooner or later it will simply be assumed you know how. Or at least that you know chords, time signatures, how to use chords to come up w/ licks or solos, etc. If you DO NOT DO THIS, YOU WILL PLATEAU VERY QUICKLY! It’s like anything else in life: It takes time. If you don’t put in the time, IT WILL BE OBVIOUS TO OTHER MUSICIANS… AND THERE ARE A LOT OF THEM.
Although i disagree with you about reading sheet music, everyone should know that music language, I really like your approach. I just got this first lesson and I understood everything you demoed here. Like it and will continue, subscribed too. Thank you! I got cheap yamaha to learn on but the goal is to transfer these skills to Ableton. I got m-audio midi plus ableton and few of the plugins and i did a number of things already but i want to understand basics and actual keys instead of digital sound so your lessons are the way to go I think. If i can play on my cheap yamaha all the stuff you are teaching here the theory can help a lot with digital because i would know sound transformation, aka music theory, better. At least i think so… Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for this!
Wow! I have always dreamed of playing the Piano, I don’t have one but we do have a Keyboard and it’s a nice one, so now I have started teaching myself and you have and are making it so much easier than I have ever imagined! My dream will actually come true and I can play with all this practice! I look so forward to doing this! I never could read notes, but with this cheat sheet that I printed out, I will keep it handy and learn from that! Thank you SO much for this! I am excited!
Re-beginner here. This was very helpful with boosting my confidence and getting me re-hooked on learning to play. My only (minor) issue, is that i dont have the option to save this article to come back to easily and quickly rewatch to practice it again.lol But thats ok because i subbed! Thanks SO much for taking your time to do this, and share it with all of us. I cant help but get excited and feel empowered to dive into learning this again. 🖤🤍🖤🤍
Your articles are awesome, I started teaching myself piano 3 years ago but unfortunately it has been all memorization and have been able to learn “medium” based songs and at points am able to play the keys with the right hand based off of sound. But I decided Id like to actually learn the keys and proper techniques, your articles are great and so easy to understand which keeps me motivated on wanting to learn proper techniques.
As a 42 year old noob I literally have to learn this as a child would. I can’t read sheet music and hope I actually never have to, I just wanna be able to read the actual keyboard. I theorise that since I can type fairly proficiently on a computer keyboard, how much different is this, really?? All I wanna do is make a customised ringtone for my phone 😂
I believe the first part of this lesson is demonstrating how to play four UP Arpeggios. Then move them up and down an octave. I have a collection of vintage analog synthesizers instead of a pianos, so not sure how much help this will be for me. I know how to play parts of some 70s and 80s synth tracks (by ear), but that’s it. Maybe this might be a bit easier than I thought, just seemed to me that learning how to play “properly” would be extremely difficult. I had always thought to be really good at playing a musical instrument, you had to learn as a child/teenager. I am a middle-aged man..
I’ve been playing piano since I was 7. A few years ago I got really depressed and life was chaos. Little did I know nearly 8 years went by and I completely forgot piano. Well I still know all the keys yet I forgot how to read notes and my left and right hand lost composition with eachother. I really want to start again so I can play my favorite songs and get as good as I used to be
Playing the piano involves using your hands to produce musical sounds through the keys of the piano. The keys of the piano are arranged in a specific sequence starting from the lowest note to the highest, usually starting with the white keys and then the black keys. To play a note on the piano, you should strike the key with your finger and apply enough pressure to produce a sound. Depending on the note you want to play, you will need to strike different keys on the piano. The more you practice, the better you’ll become at playing the piano.
I just purchased a keyboard and am so excited! I am 74 and this is my first musical instrument ever. I was confused when I took it out of the box. Some people use the labels for the notes, I purchased and placed them on right away. I went to YOUTUBE and saw they were using numbers on the keys instead. I called Amazon-they don’t sell the numbers so i made them myself. My next problem was that each article has the numbers on different keys. Sometimes a number is on the black keys, next article, ithe same number is on the white. PEASE HELP!
