| WHY LEARN THE PIANO? - The physical, mental and spiritual benefits of playing the piano are well documented. What few people realise, however, is just how easy it can be to take the first step. There is hardly any age that's wrong for taking up the piano. Once a child has expressed the desire to learn the piano, shows sufficient concentration to absorb ideas and understands the concept of practise, then he or she is ready. For some children this may be as young as five or six whilst others may not be ready until the age of nine or ten. Developing minds can pick up new skills and patterns quickly, and the younger the pianist, the more years of enjoyment lie ahead. But it's never too late, either. My eldest piano pupil didn't start until he was into his sixties. For more than three hundred years the simple joy of making music has been all the reward a piano player ever needed. So if you are thinking about taking up the piano, what are you waiting for? Do it now! |
