Piano Lessons - Buying Your First Piano

I have taken an interest in leaning to play piano.  Starting with an online course, Piano For All, I have started to think about buying a new piano.

Musical instruments are a incredible release from everyday pressure. I've been playing guitar for several years and it is my daily retreat.  Musical instruments provide a pressure outlet for adults and children. Now that I am considering learning, and buying a piano, there are a couple of key points I've learned to consider before making the purchase.

Pianos are costly and quite cumbersome to move around.  Purchasing an improper piano is not a mistake you can easily correct. Most people opt for upright pianos due to their compact size and simple simplicity. A smaller upright piano might be moved and adjusted inside the house, plus most are transported in the back of a pickup truck if needed.  Although if you get serious about playing you will find it best to employ piano movers.

It is assumed that if you are buying a piano that you have at least tinkled on the keys a bit, despite the fact that you aren't quite the proficient piano player.  Pianos tend to have a surprising number of features and trying them out prior to paying is a good idea. I want a piano with a stronger touch, as it enhances to the tone I like to play in. Those who like to play softer classical music and popish ballads tend to like  a piano with a softer tone.

Spinnet upright pianos are what I found to be a mid-range instrument for the beginner piano player. They offer a high quality tone for little cash. Their smaller size makes an easy decision for people without loads of space for something such as a baby grand.  Don't be fooled, the small size doesn't compromise on sound.

One of the recommendations I found in a review of the Piano For All course, is that often new piano players consider buying an electronic keyboard as opposed to a piano. While it is perfectly doable to learn the fundamentals of piano playing on a keyboard, don't be fooled into thinking it is an identical substitute. 

There are distinct differences. excluding the loss of the pedals on the piano.  There is also a loss of complete and full sound that the piano offers.  A keyboard just cannot match that tone. In the world of musical instruments, there are piano players and there are keyboardists. While there are exceptions, most piano players don't enjoy the keyboard.

Purchasing a piano is a commitment. If you have never played a piano before, you should try out several models and types before committing. You are likely to find that you like the keyboard better if this is what you have been practicing on. While the keyboard could be slightly less costly, you should focus on paying for the instrument you want to play.
