Hi there, I'm new here and would like to learn to play on keyboard - I own Casio CTK-573 for about half an year, but didn't really learn to play something awesome. More bits and bobs from some songs and lately I've been reading this basic music theory - I'm thinking of buying a new keyboard (which i don't know yet, maybe you could help me with that too - but back to the point - what approach did you have when decided you want to play this instrument - I got no time for tutor, though it may be one of the most safiest way how to proceed and hone playing skills. So what can you recommend me for study material - besides giving advice to practice everyday Cheers mates, Peter My favourite kind of music: rock, metal, classical Bands: Stratovarius, Nightwish, Children of Bodom, Dream Theater (enlisted only bands with strong keys position)
I took private lessons when I was younger, which was good for me However, on PBS there is someone who calls himself "The Piano Guy" and he has a cool way of teaching. Check it out sometime if you like it you might buy his DVD Tutorials
Yeah I know, have already seen some vids of him teaching "basic" techniques he's familiar with during playing - Dream Theater is my favourite progressive metal band, really amazing... Do you know his solo albums? Or An evening with John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess album? It's simply breath-taking, love it. anyway, thansk a lot for the reply ;-) Rock on!
