Playing Piano

Piano Lessons Online – Take Action Today, You Can Be Playing Straight Away!

Making the decision to learn piano is the easy bit. Following through and actually starting is a challenge. Continuing to practice and finally becoming accomplished is the true test. With moving from novice to fully trained pianist seemingly being such a long and difficult road, it’s no wonder many people give up along the way. But if you want to make it as easy as it can be, then Piano Online lessons are a truly great option to consider.

When you first look online for lessons, the choice can be mind blowing, to say the least. Type in “Free Piano Lessons” and you will be inundated with videos of tunes you can watch someone play, and try to follow. But, as with most things in life, free piano lessons usually means two things. Either there’s a catch, and you find you get some free stuff that takes you a short way to get you interested – then drops you like a stone until you pay for “real” lessons. Or the free information is nice, but difficult to follow. Why should this be? It’s simply because you’ve never taken the steps to learn in a structured fashion.

So should you consider paying for piano lessons online? Well, in short – yes! Will this cost you a lot of money – the answer is No! For a reasonably small investment (sometimes less than $40) you can find totally reliable courses that will take you step by step through a proper, and structured program of Piano Tuition – easily as effective as taking traditional lessons with a tutor. Obviously, your investment would be just a fraction of class-based lessons. However, you still get personal support from the online tutor who will individually answer any questions you have.

Another benefit is that you can learn at a pace, and a time, which suits you. For sure, learning the piano requires dedication, but you need to balance this with downtime too. Learning at home means you can fit your practice around your social activities.

A course of piano lessons online may not follow the traditional route. That is to say that you will be shown, initially, how to play basic chords (as heard in popular tunes on the radio and in shows). This will build a foundation that gets you playing almost immediately. This gives you confidence, makes practice fun, and sets you up sufficiently to be able to tackle the more difficult pieces later on.

Live & Learn $10.38 Live & Learn, Bobby Watson’s Palmetto debut, is an engaging quintet disc featuring Orrin Evans on piano, Greg Skaff on guitar, old friend Curtis Lundy on bass, and up and comer Montez Coleman on drums. It’s a high-spirited record, melding hard bop (“River Jordan,” Pamela Watson’s “Stanky P,” Dawn Warren’s “Why Not”) with more soul-tinged sounds (“We Fall Down,” “Live & Learn”). Skaff’s guitar gives the session much of that contemporary bite. The instrument isn’t terribly common in mainstream small-group settings, but Watson, to his credit, uses it to set his music apart in a variety of ways. He duets with Skaff on the mournful “Postlude”; Skaff then switches to acoustic for the effective WTC tribute “Landmarks Lost.” On the traditional “Thank You,” by contrast, Watson blows freely over a hot swing vamp, backed only by Lundy and Coleman. (“Give me what I need!” he tells the rhythm section at the start of the take.) To wrap up, Watson turns up the heat in 12/8 on the Sammy Davis, Jr. vehicle “I’ve Gotta Be Me.” Passionate and accessible, Watson’s music deserves wider recognition, and Palmetto’s stature as a strong jazz indie can only help. ~ David R. Adler, Rovi Performers: Bobby Watson – Sax (Alto), Sax (Soprano); Curtis Lundy – Bass; Montez Coleman – Drums; Orrin Evans – Piano

Live and Learn $10.38 Indie pop sextet House of Fools effortlessly conjure up images of warm summer days spent flitting about barefoot in the countryside with their full-length debut, Live and Learn. As with the blue skies and pure white clouds of their 2006 eponymous EP, most of these tracks sound like they’re being played as the band walks down the side of some backwoods road lazily kicking up dirt. But Live and Learn is a more dynamic record than that earlier EP. The group explores lusher arrangements and more varied tones, and works to build each song up with charming layers rather than just resting on one pretty section (see the vibrant “Kiss the Haze”). Though the album’s first half seems to sonically be all peaches and cream, as on the twinkling “It Could Be Easy” and openhearted “My Life Before Today” (the latter pulled from their prior EP), the farther one gets into the second half, clouds roll in and subtly turn the proceedings into a more somber affair. Sunshine still pokes its head out, as in the ’60s-inspired pop of “Go Down,” but songs like “Interested” and especially the thrilling buildup of “I Heard a Rumor” bring a darker restlessness to the table. This other side of House of Fools is a welcome surprise; seeing that they’re not afraid to get a little downtrodden and dirty gives them a human quality that pure and consistent sunshine often floods out. “I should know what it feels like, this emptiness inside…coursing through my veins, erasing everything,” from the dignified sadness of “Pour Me Out,” is seemingly drowning in grayness, which is a far cry from the sun-touched arrangements starting things off. By the ending title track, however, the mood has shifted again, the despondence replaced with, fittingly enough, a contented calm. These tonal changes never sacrifice the album’s overall cohesiveness, and instead help each track to achieve a distinct identity. Together they make Live and Learn a rewarding listen, and House of Fools a band to keep an eye on. ~ Corey Apar, Rovi Performers: David Wallace McLaughlin – Harmonica, Banjo, Guitar (Acoustic), Guitar (Electric), Vocals, Guitar (Baritone); Rami Jaffee – Accordion, Organ; Jeff Linn – Guitar (Bass), Vocals; Joel Kiser – Guitar (Electric), Guitar (Acoustic); Josh King – Guitar (Electric), Guitar (Baritone), Guitar (Acoustic), Vocals, Piano; Matt Bowers – Guitar (Acoustic), Piano, Vocals, Keyboards; Phil Bell – Drums;

Learn to Live $15.18 Darius Rucker’s leap into country music is not a move without precedent for the Hootie & the Blowfish lead singer, as his band was loosely rooted in country-ish roots rock. Nevertheless, a more important antecedent for Learn to Live is a 2005 Burger King commercial where Rucker was decked out in a Nudie suit while singing a spin on “Big Rock Candy Mountain.” It was the unveiling of Rucker the country singer, and caused enough of a sensation to make a country album seem like a feasible move. As slight as the commercial was, it provided a stronger musical foundation than the urban R&B behind his 2002 solo debut Back to Then did, as Rucker showed no inclination toward modern soul in Hootie, whereas Learn to Live appeals directly to the frat boys and sports fanatics that made Cracked Rear View perhaps the most inexplicable multi-platinum hit of the ’90s. Like those songs, the tunes on Learn to Live are big and simple, powered by obvious hooks delivered plainly — and truth be told, apart from the 2-step shuffle of “All I Want,” the loping modern country of “Alright,” and the slow pace of the clever barroom crawl “Drinkin’ and Dialin’,” they don’t feel especially country, either. They may not be made for honky tonks, but they do feel rootsy, much like Cracked Rear View did, and as they’re written with Rucker in mind, not a jam band, they’re more pop in form and feel than anything he’s done since. Which, of course, also makes them ingratiating: these songs aren’t knockouts, but they’re friendly and comfortable, the kind of sturdy roots-pop that seems like it’d be easy to pull off but must not be, as this delicate balance of conversational melody and guy-next-door appeal has proven elusive to Rucker for over a decade now. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi Performers: Gordon Mote – Hammond B3, Organ (Hammond), Piano; Alison Krauss – Vocals (Background); Anthony LaMarchina – Viola, Cello; Aubrey Haynie – Fiddle, Mandolin; Bryan Sutton – Mandolin, Banjo, Guitar (Acoustic); Dan Dugmore – Dobro, Guitar (Steel); David Angell – Strings; David Davidson – Strings; Mary Kathryn

Not for Piano $13.58 Don’t let the title of Francesco Tristano’s CD deceive you, for he plays acoustic piano on all the selections, enhanced by occasional ghostly electronic background trimmings. It is not necessarily a jazz piano recording, but one where he has paid attention to the minimalist 20th and 21st century players influenced by Steve Reich. Tristano’s music is also keyed into techno (modifying a tune by Autechre) and alternative rock, some ethnic elements, and pure improvisational keyboard stylings. The introductory piece, “Hello,” establishes the repeat-line concept with attributions, different accents and dynamics, bouncy and soulful components, and some improvisation. “Strings of Life,” an adaptation of Detroit techno pioneer Derrick May’s “Strings,” exploits underground phantom effects in a two-chord development that builds momentum. A rumbling free improv discourse during “Ap” features a string of mini-arpeggios, while “The Melody” shows Tristano in joyous counterintuitive play. Three selections team Tristano with the brilliant Lebanese pianist Rami Khalife (his CD Scene from Hellek is a must-buy), and they display instant rapport. Tapping the pianos inside and out during “Jeita” to start, they move into a fractured theme and then a train trip with consistent forward motion. “The Bells” is closest to Steve Reich’s concept — slow, steady, then speeding within a controlled melodic framework — while “Hymn” takes a dramatic and boisterous turn with a sense of purpose that speeds past the Reich visage. Tristano is in many ways a sensible and somewhat predictable player, but takes sufficient risks and uses shadings of gray and blue, a bit of Latin samba as on “Two Minds One Sound,” and lighthearted romanticism or delicate simplicity offering diversity beyond strict minimalism. A most enjoyable and interesting project, it should please most progressive music listeners, and serve as a credible prelude to future works. ~ Michael G. Nastos, Rovi Performers: Francesco Tristano – Piano; Raimundo Penaforte – Voices, Violin, Percussion; Rami Khalifé – Piano

Free Will $14.38 Gil Scott-Heron’s third album is split down the middle, the first side being a purely musical experience with a full band (including flutist Hubert Laws and drummer Pretty Purdie), the second functioning more as a live rap session with collaborator Brian Jackson on flute and a few friends on percussion. For side one, although he’s overly tentative on the ballad “The Middle of Your Day,” Scott-Heron excels on the title track and the third song, “The Get Out of the Ghetto Blues,” one of his best, best-known performances. The second side is more of an impromptu performance, with Scott-Heron often explaining his tracks by way of introduction (“No Knock” referred to a new police policy whereby knocking was no longer required before entering a house, “And Then He Wrote Meditations” being Scott-Heron’s tribute to John Coltrane). His first exploration of pure music-making, Free Will functions as one of Scott-Heron’s most visceral performance, displaying a maturing artist who still draws on the raw feeling of his youth. The Bluebird reissue from 2001 includes eight alternate takes, best being an alternate of the title track. ~ John Bush, Rovi Performers: Bernard “Pretty” Purdie – Drums; Brian Jackson – Vocals, Piano (Electric), Piano; Charles Saunders – Percussion; Charlie Saunders – Percussion; David Spinozza – Guitar; Eddie Knowles – Percussion; Gerald Jemmott – Bass; Gil Scott-Heron – Piano, Guitar, Vocals; Hubert Laws – Piccolo, Flute

A Data Learn the Language $8.78 The third album by Florida-based quartet Mercury Program is a small departure, eliminating vocals entirely and adding electronics for the first time to what had previously been a richly acoustic, almost jazzy sound. The band is still centered around Whitney Travisano’s electric piano and vibraphone (guitarist Tom Reno and drummer Dave LeBleu also add vibes to several songs), which gives A Data Learn the Language a cool, mellow feel, like the Sea and Cake reinterpreting their favorite Modern Jazz Quartet sides. The electronics and loops are introduced sparingly, supporting the eight lengthy songs and adding new and interesting textures, but never becoming the center of musical attention. A Data Learn the Language will be of no interest to those who find instrumental post-rock insufferably dull, but it’s consistently melodic, rhythmically varied, and unfailingly listenable. Coctails and Tortoise fans take note. ~ Stewart Mason, Rovi Performers: Dave Lebleu – Computers, Vibraphone, Drums; Sander Travisano – Guitar (Bass); Whit Travisano – Vibraphone, Piano (Electric)
