A Different Way to Learn Piano
on: October 21, 2009, 07:25:37 PM
When I was a youngster I took piano lessons for two years but was pulled away by the baseball field. Last summer I decided to try to take up the piano again...even got a copy of my old Third Grade Thompson book. But I just couldn't make it work. Recently I came across an item called "Sheet Music On A Stick" and my re-learning is back on again. This is a small USB drive and when you plug it into your computer you get all the sheet music for the album...in this case 127 pages of Chopin Nocturnes and Impromptus and 203 minutes of an MP3 audio file. It is great what you can do with this. If you press "play" the notes light up across the screen and you can hear the music. You can mute either the right or left hand...you can slow the tempo...you can even change the key. I think that anyone who is trying to re-learn to play piano should know about this.
