1/1

It doesn’t take long for Keith to arrive at the piano bench, unfolding his arms and pulling it out with both hands. He sits down, hair bouncing, and lifts the cover from the piano keys. Reverently, Keith’s fingers hover over black and ivory like a sinner kneeling at the pulpit.

Nobody moves, thinks, or breathes, they give the entire space that they take up to Keith. His bare fingers touch down on the keys and never stop moving.

or, lance is at keith’s piano concert in an attempt to do Literally Anything.

Neil S. Kvern - Doctor Dancing Mask: Pianoisms

The Freedom To Spend label is on a serious roll these days, bringing us wondrous slices of eccentric / organic minimalism — Cheri Knight, Ernest Hood, Universal Liberation Orchestra and now, the amazing "pianoisms" of Neil S. Kvern. Doctor Dancing Mask was first a cassette released in tiny quantities back in 1983, collecting Kvern's hypnotic and strange compositions; acoustic piano, lightly fried percussion, marimba, unknown FX and voices, all sculpted into bewitching shapes. Are these pieces unraveling or, uh, raveling? Hard to say! Probably both. But the music's handmade, visionary qualities are positively spellbinding. You might think at times of Jon Hassell's Fourth World situations, but to my ears, Kvern is a total original. Give it a spin.

Why Do Piano Lessons Help with Playing Other Instruments?

Lots of parents have often told me that their child has learned guitar/bass/flute/clarinet....etc. quickly because they took piano lessons. Why? What are the transferable skills from piano?

Music Theory Learning any instrument requires at least some basic reading of notes, rhythm, dynamics, and details, depending on the instrument. To know what certain symbols represent and what type of sound is suggested.

Some instruments only requires reading from one staff! While piano requires reading both the treble and bass, this gives a solid overview of the grand staff to set up the musical brain to learn any instrument.

Finger Control Most instruments require the use of fingers; learning the piano allows the the student to practice finger control and learning how to use each finger independently.

Ear Training Playing the piano also allows the student to develop their ear, in terms of recognizing the movement of notes (moving up vs moving down), to differentiate basic intervalic movement in sound (step, skip, leap, etc.), sounds in different register (higher, lower), and basic rhythmic patterns.

Rhythm A main concept of music theory, and integrated into ear training, rhythm is a fundamental of music. To know that certain symbols mean to hold a sound longer, to play it as quick as possible, and also what symbols represent silence and how long silences should be.

--------------------------

Teachers of various instruments have their own age restriction guidelines because even if a child shows eagerness in learning a certain instrument, holding certain instruments with proper posture may present an issue, let alone reaching tiny fingers to cover certain keys.

Starting with piano lessons at a young age does wonders for their development and growth in many ways, to prepare for school, and also to allow a child to experience music and the world of symbolic representation.

Make sure to find a qualified teacher who fits your child's personality, and is open to trying new activities to engage your child. There is nothing worse than a negative experience stretched over years of lessons!

Happy playing! :)
