How to Learn Piano for Beginners - piano notes
for beginners
The piano is one of the most versatile musical
instruments, essential to many styles of music.
While
mastery of the piano requires many years of study and
practice, a beginner can learn the basics of playing
piano through independent study, including the
locations of keys and how to read sheet music.
• Learn the basics of music pitch notation.
All western music is played on a staff, a series of five
parallel horizontal lines used to indicate pitch.
The pitch is determined by which line or space of
the staff a note head (small, round symbols, usually attached to a fal) is sitting on.
The higher
the note head is on the staff, the higher the pitch.
Some pitches will sit just above or below the
staves.
In this case, they may have small lines drawn below and/or through the note heads.
These are called "leger lines" and have the effect of extending the staff.
• Familiarize yourself with the grand staff -- two lines of stave
