im still newbie in piano..
still learning.

I found that it hard for me to play both hand properly.
Do you have any tips for this problem?

lol i just jump grade to grade 7 haha
those pieces are so hard....!!

Jump to Grade 7? Don't u need Theory Test for that?

gamer, u don't need any test to learn anything, if you have a teacher that allows it

owhh.. i dun know that.. lol thanks anyway zzzxtreme

Usually for exam purpose the teachers ask for minimum Grade 5 theory in order to learn practical Grade 6 and above, but if only for learning purpose, you can start with Grade 8 if you want.

The rationale for exam purpose is for you to at least grasp the basic theory in order to "understand" or interpret the music sheets/pieces.

ABRSM Grade 6 and above = Grade 5 theory cert needed
Trinity = no pre-requirement. not sure if they change the syllabus

dunno about other examination board...

of course, nobody can stop you to learn Grade 100 if you want to or if your teacher allows.

Still the same. ABRSM is more about paper chase. I want to learn Grade 100 too

whats the difference of Trinity And ABRSM??

can anyone give me lorry number in klang valley who has the knowledge on disassembling an electone and clavinova and moving it to another location?

Do you mean removal? moving your clarinova to another location?

yeah moving both clavinova and electone. i thought both has to be dissembled first

You do not need to dissembled. The transporter just will carry the whole thing

ABRSM fees is cheaper than Trinity.
What i can see is, ABRSM pieces are harder than trinity.
For example like, Trinity grade 3 pieces is just like ABRSM grade 1 pieces.
ABRSM is more strict compare to trinity.

and if u are really serious in music and want to make it as a career, i would suggest u to take ABRSM.

tak kisah pun actually, both trinity and abrsm are good~
Depends whether we practice or not. kalau tak practice main pun berterabur pun sama je kan~

hi peeps! am new here. a pianist, learn piano till grade 7 and stop but continue plying my piano by hearing music without looking on the music sheet . glad to join the louyat music club here.

cert = piece of paper certified by a body that you have been thru the fundamental training

success = doesnt come from a pc of paper = is about effort and hardwork, plus a little bit of luck

my personal opinion...

Hi newbie in piano here, just started learning by myself for a week+, anyone wanna let go of his/hers old piano grade 1 books? (ABRSM or Trinity) or know who's selling them? wanna try my hand at them just for fun, not really interested in taking the exams.

PM me ya

Just practice you will slowly master it.

Btw I am a new to music too, but I can learn music thru video especially piano. I can play fur elise well now with both hand just watching vids thru youtube.

Somehow when I play, the sound of music just get in my brain and translate the note. I like it very much. Although I am just religion course student, about Quranic things well that is not a reason to stop me playing music.

yes lol... practise makes perfect... XD

I don't have a teacher to guide me, so here's my question, been pondering for quite sometime now, how to know which octave to use when u play? I googled around and found this answer, bass clef plus 1 ledger above is middle c but going by this logic, isnt 2 ledgers above bass clef is the same E as the bottom E on a treble clef? what if this 2 notes clashes?

this is what i meant, is the 2 notes the same note?
