Besides, there are several ways to learn the piano. Some pick it up on their own from books and DVDs, some go to music schools and some like instructions from a personal teacher.
There are others who want to learn but are not sure whether they would be able to do it at their age. That is the reason the Piano FAQs page brings together some of the most commonly asked questions about learning the piano.
Ques: I want my children to start taking piano lessons. What kind of starter piano should I buy for my kids?
Ans: I would say start with a digital keyboard, see how it goes for the next 12-18 months and then take a call. For more information you can go through this site
Ques: If I go in for an electronic/digital keyboard, do I need to buy the full length 88 keys keyboard?
Ans: Not really! You get 4-5 octave keyboards as well. A 5-octave keyboard would be ideal to start on, since you can practice lessons using both your hands. You can buy and connect an external pedal as well to electronic keyboards.
Ques: What is the right age for my kids to start taking piano lessons?
Ans: Your kids can start as early as when they are 4 years old.
Ques: I am 50 years old. Can I learn the piano at this age?
Ans: You can start taking piano lessons at any age you like! Learning to play the piano is like learning any other skill and there is no reason why you should not be able to do it.
Ques: I am an adult. Can I learn the piano without going to a personal teacher?
Ans: You can definitely start learning the piano from method books and DVDs. In fact, for adults it could be a better way to begin just because of time commitments. You can then switch over to a personal teacher for intermediate/advanced lessons.
