Hey! I know I just asked this question, but I failed to mention that I am a professional, paid singer. I do shows and have been for about a year. Ive been singing for twelve and have had many trainers and coaches. Ive been with my current one for about three years. This is kind of how I learned to play. Ive been basically forced to sight read all the music thats ever been put infront of me. I just learned how to transfer it to the piano.
Now that weve gotten that out of the way,

Hey! does this sound halfway decent? I recorded it on my iphone (horrible quality) … Ive never had piano lessons.
Should I take lessons?
Also, please check out my other youtube videos (IF YOU WANT) http://www.youtube.com/user/iwnabonbrdway

ok, well, i have this audition thing for violin. it’s pretty tough, and i don’t know if i want to audition. the thing is……i have been working on this music piece for about 2 months now,and i don’t want to disappoint my violin teacher and mom. (my dad is cool with w/e i choose, he just wants me to b happy.) i am actually re-auditioning. the requirements r the excerpts they provide and a random sight reading piece. the sight reading was pretty hard. also, i think it might interfere with school work, because they have rehearsals every Mon. at about 8pm during the school year. so basically my problem is: if i do it, it’ll have to work SUPER hard and i might b bad. if don’t, my violin teacher and my mom will most likely be disappointed in me,maybe even mad. i feel, rly nervous, scared, pressured, stressed, and i’m in a turmoil. srry i cant explain the situation so well, my head is all clouded up, and i cant rly think straight about this. but, i’ll add as much more detail as i can. plz help me, thx! btw, the orchestra group is called: TYOF (The Youth Orchestras of Fairfax) website is: http://tyof.org/news.php

i have a piano class at school, and ive noticed these things on sheet music i’ve never seen before. and i have a lot of trouble practicing. ive been playing piano for years on my own, i got a private teacher for maybe 2 and a half months. and now im a freshman in high school with a piano class mixed with well experienced players, and people who have never seen a grand piano before.

first there’s this thing beside the time signature.
its a “C” with a line through it. i’m not talking about the note middle c. i mean an actual “C” with a vertical line Through it. ive asked friends, and they have never seen it before. the teacher is ALWAYS busy helping someone, so its hard to ask him anything.

Then i heard somewhere that the time signature affects the amount of beats a dotted quarter note gets. is that true?

and i am HORRIBLE at sight reading. i need major help with that. i can read sheet music fine, but i have a hard time playing while reading. i read first, memorize it, then play. my teacher can play anything you put in front of him as if he wrote it. how do i get better at this? are there any websites?

Hello, i’m doing a project, about a inspiring story here is the story i found and <3 :

My mom only had one eye. I hated her… She was such an embarrassment. She cooked for students and teachers to support the family.
There was this one day during elementary school where my mom came to say hello to me. I was so embarrassed.
How could she do this to me? I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school one of my classmates said, ‘EEEE, your mom only has one eye!’
I wanted to bury myself. I also wanted my mom to just disappear. I confronted her that day and said, ‘ If you’re only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don’t you just die?’
My mom did not respond… I didn’t even stop to think for a second about what I had said, because I was full of anger. I was oblivious to her feelings.
I wanted out of that house, and have nothing to do with her. So I studied real hard, got a chance to go abroad to study.
Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. I had kids of my own. I was happy with my life, my kids and the comforts. Then one day, my Mother came to visit me. She hadn’t seen me in years and she didn’t even meet her grandchildren.
When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I yelled at her for coming over uninvited. I screamed at her, ‘How dare you come to my house and scare my children!’ GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!’
And to this, my mother quietly answered, ‘Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address,’ and she disappeared out of sight.
One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house. So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, I went to the old shack just out of curiosity.
My neighbors said that she died. I did not shed a single tear. They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have.
‘My dearest son,
I think of you all the time. I’m sorry that I came to your house and scared your children.
I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I’m sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were growing up.
You see……..when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t stand watching you having to grow up with one eye. So I gave you mine.
I was so proud of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye.
With all my love to you,
Your mother.’

I want to take guitar lessons and i want to learn rock, but the only thing i have found so far is Beginning Blues Guitar and Bass. Here is the caption

“Learn blues guitar or bass. Beginning guitar and bass skills will be presented in the entertaining framework of learning the blues form. Instruction includes music notable, sight-reading and ensemble playing with detailed instruction on technique by physical example and printed materials. Stylistic examples provided by in structor and by readings. Because blues is the foundation of american jazz, rock and ethnic form,skills acquired in this class will provide students with a foundation for further study. All ages welcome. No experience required.”

So should i take it or look around for rock lessons?

daniel asked:


I am looking for some advice in music careers. I just want to know about some of the options i have. I am attending year 9 in Melbourne, Australia and am 15 years old.
I have played piano for 6 years, currently in practicing for grade 5 exams. Basically i would really appreciate some outlook on my future as a musician. Being a concert pianist would be a very fulfilling job as it is basically performing for a living. I like the idea as it doesn’t require any song writing(i really am not creative). I have done some research and i have read that you would need a lot of theory skill and when it comes to theory and reading a whole piece of music in 5 minutes and understanding it all that doesn’t look very easy. I think i am more of a good-ear kind of musician and i am willing to practice and study theory. But the thing i am worried about is the fact that it might be too late for me to study theory and sight reading completely. Keeping in mind im not completely blind on theory i have gotten straight B+s in my last exams, apart from last year. Also i am very curious on how i am meant to cram heaps of study on music theory and complete some weekly homework assignments as well. I just would like some insight on how it is actually possible because the only thing stopping me is my motivation and confidence levels. It just seems like it is too much to handle

Any Help is Appreciated.
