Hi guys, new to this forum, i learn't organ for about 3 years when i'm 7, stopped at 10 y/o, now i'm 17 y/o, is it possible to learn by self?

Of course u can, any musical instrument also can learn by self. Go buy a piano now to start.

Well actually i'm seeking guide here, like what should i do to get to know more about piano, lol i know google is a best tool for me, but i hope i can get more info from here. =)

Yes possible, however if u stay around shah alam i can teach you for free, i am a diploma holder in piano.

Thanks for the offer, but sadly its too far from my house

well,its possible but not recomended la unless u only want to play popular music lo.

but if u put effort,theres alot of online lesson ,google it out, or on youtube.
i think youtube is a good place,cause whatever i dont understnad bout guitar,i can check on youtube,so i think youtube will have piano lessons

what do you want to play?
classical , or pop ?
there was an earlier thread about a 20+ year old guy wanting to learn keyboards.. and the 'play by ear' course was mentioned and explained in detail in that thread..

Hmm, classical..some anime's opening theme, and the most famous one, Secret, LOL

hmmm. categories as POP then.
i guess those kind of songs are quite easy to learn if u put effort in it.
good luck. maybe u can enroll in music class for 1-2months to understand the basics?? and u can quit after 2 month. after that watever u dont understand refer to ur friends or internet^^

Ic, thanks for the info guys =)

i agree on this too, but maybe a month or 2 later, you might not even want 2 quit realising how much more you need to learn before you can start self learning

the first few weeks are the toughest.
just stay strong n u will get the hang of it

Anything is possible as long as you put your heart in it.

I think there should be some online tutorials, google around.

Its important to know the correct techniques and basics in the early stage...
Just like anything else, solid foundation is vital.


Good Luck and Have Fun

hmmm wat should i do to learn piano myself?
i dun hav a piano or keyboard..
planning to get one keyboard but dunno which..
can u guys suggest one, which i can carry around?
cos i studying in melaka but i will go back my hometown once awhile..

i heard some say its easier to learn piano first then go learn piano but abit tougher to change from organ to piano, but nothign is impossible here as long as u got the determination!

being a beginner who wants to learn piano sendiri, and our house dont have any piano or keyboard >_<

is it possible to learn songs from friend directly instead of kaji how the keys/tones in the music score?

wanted to learn some song in the end of the year during school holiday, maybe future kaolui can use

haha, if kao lui learn electric guitar more easy^^

back to topic: yes, its possible to learn piano from friends directly.

but under few conditions lo:

-ur friend must be very good or else u wont get to suck much out of him

-buy ur own piano/keyboard, this will show ur friend that u are serious

-always practise before going to ur friend!! u dont want ur friend scold u like kanasai because u never practise

hmm. thanks for the advice =D

is there any low-end or cheap or lelong piano to buy? how much is it will be? rm100+- ?
is piano = keyboard?

>_< i'm so noob

wondered if there is any usb piano can plug into computer, aha.

rm100++ to cheap a budget.

keyboard alone cost 300-800 ( i guess)

if piano second hand also cost at least 1500-3000++

so if u are really serious, it will be worth the effort
