Lessons From Music

By Hayes B. Won

I don't know a person who didn't wish they knew how to play music, wether they want to start a band, play at a BBQ or around a campfire, with friends and family. Learning to play can be fun and rewarding. Sometimes you need lessons to learn the guitar piano or keyboard. Yes it can be frustrating. but when you first play something on your own it feels really good. Even better when you can get together with friends and make some music.

The first instrument I learned to play was called a tone flute, It was made of black plastic and I loved it, I spent hours after music class blowing out some horrible tunes but I could, and still can play twinkle twinkle at the drop of a hat, I learned to play music and I found it to be very enjoyable I never thought much of it then but that tone flute had a profound effect on my life.

Since 1985 when I learned to read music from my music teacher Mr. Wagner, I have enjoyed music everyday. I don't remember much about the man who taught me other then he wore too much polyester. I was five years old and I still remember his lessons. EVERY GOOD BOY DOES FINE if you remember that you can read music. Thanks to Mr. Wagner.

I digress, what I'm saying is that learning music has shown to be crucial in my life. I have gotten untold enjoyment from it. I think if a child isn't give the opportunity to learn music they are really missing out. A good education can be great when music is in the curriculum.

When budgets get cut it seems that musical education is one of the first things to go. That stinks! If your a parent or a student or you know someone who wants to learn you still can. You can find great lessons for the keyboard piano or guitar. You just have to take the time to learn. - 31872

Simple Guitar Lessons for Beginners

By Rick Dupont

The best way to learn to play a musical instrument is using the practice that you can enjoy. Learning to play an instrument can be very rewarding, but the experience can also become frustrating if you slog your way through the musical scales to the extent that you start hating them. There is enough information available online regarding every aspect of playing guitar, however all this information is quite scattered and is not suitable for novices. Learning the anatomy of guitar is the first lesson of beginner's course, and it is essential to know the common functions and names of different parts of the guitar.

There are also other scales important to learn about including the blues scale, whole tone scale and pentatonic scale. The minor, major, blues and pentatonic scales are the most common. To make it easier when you're first learning, make sure to break it down into smaller chunks. This helps to make things simpler and keep your mind from getting overloaded.

To get yourself started with this electric guitar lesson one of the best things you can do is practice over and over every major scale in first position. It may get a bit repetitive but you'll feel good as you see that you're starting to get the hang of things. The top number of the time signature is helpful because it tells you how many beats are in a measure. The time signature comes after the key signature.

Scales on a guitar move progressively in order of sharps or flats. For this electric guitar lesson an effective drill is to play through all the sharp scales first starting with C major and then memorize the fingering for each one. Again, with practice you're going to start noticing the differences in sounds as you go along from one scale to the next and recognize which scales need to be used during a song. Drills are necessary to help you gain skills.

Thanks to Internet, learning to play the guitar online can be tailored as per your interests, and you can learn at your own pace. These sites also have discussion forums where you can share your experience ask questions from other forum members, and also learn from their experience but keep in mind that as a beginner, it is essential to follow each lesson and step thoroughly, as playing guitar requires clear mental picture of the structure of music. - 31872
