By Enid Hinton


The piano is a magnificent instrument that is very hard to play but can make very beautiful music if played by an expert. Now if one would want to become really good at playing this instrument, then it is recommended that he take up private piano lessons vancouver bc. It is through private classes that one can truly become an expert because the teacher will be fully concentrating on that one student.

Now in the first official lesson, the student has to learn the basics before he can even touch the instruments. First off, he will be taught how to read the music line as well as the notes that are to be written there. He will then be learning about the A to G notes and how he will be playing them on the piano.

After learning the basic things, one will then learn about the black keys and the white keys that pianos have. He will then be learning about the eight octaves that he will be playing later on. Of course once he is done with all the theoretical knowledge, he will then go ahead to practicing finger movement,

The right handed individuals will always started with the right hand while the lefties will always start with their left hands. The student will first be doing some finger exercises so that his fingers will get used to moving around the instrument. He will be pressing the A key first, then the B key and will keep on going until he reaches the G key in which he will then move backwards.

Now after one has finished the first finger exercise, there are other finger exercises that he would be introduced to. Now the succeeding finger exercises are even much harder than the first so one has to prepare. The teacher will of course let the student start with one hand first, then the other, and then both hands.

Now the finger exercises are what he is going to do from now on at the start of every lesson as it will serve as a warm up exercise. Now after that, the teacher will then be teaching him the chords that are going to be used later on in some songs. Of course the student will first be learning the basic and common chords before he goes on to the more advanced chords.

Once one has learned all of those things, then he will be taught his very first song. Now his very first song will actually be a very easy one that does not contain that many notes to play. Now his second song may be a little bit more difficult because it will already be involving some of the basic chords that he learned.

Once one has already finished all the basic lessons, then naturally he would move on to the more advanced lessons which are much harder. Now if one is looking for a really good tutor, then one of the best places to look for one would be in the city of Vancouver Bc. This city has a lot of very good tutors who really know how to teach.
