Hello. I'm new here. Anyway, I used to play the organ at semi-beginner's level (step 5-6) and I still know how to play it. Recently, I've decided to play the piano and am now taking piano lessons and enjoying them immensely but I still make mistakes regarding notation (the note for middle C on the piano is.. uh.. not-so-middle on the upper keyboard -- forgive the wording ) and of course the weight of the keys are vastly different. I'm so used to the soft touch of the organ that sometimes, after a practice session on the piano, my hands are kind of sore. I'm glad I have a Yamaha U1 which, I hear, has a lighter key weight than most other brands.My question is, for those who used to play the organ, how do you make the transition easier? Or is this a totally stupid question and should I just go practice a lot?
interesting statistic...
