What Is The Best Age To Begin Piano Lessons?
Parents who give their children the gift of a musical education start them out on a path that will enrich their lives in so many ways. Studying music develops discipline, hand-eye coordination, intelligence, and creates a skill that can bring happiness to both the performer and to listeners.
Here at Hoffman Academy, we recommend ages 5-8 as the perfect time to start instrumental lessons. At this age, children have the development to handle structured, formal educational settings. They’ve also acquired more fine motor skills, such as the ability to move fingers independently. However, it’s perfectly possible to start playing an instrument earlier.
How Long Will It Take To Learn The Piano?
The amount of time it takes to learn to play the piano depends on what level of playing you want to achieve. A person with no experience can learn to play the melody of a short song in minutes.
On the other hand, let’s say you want to become a world-class classical pianist, and perform crazy-advanced pieces like Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto #3. If you want to be a professional classical performer, you’re looking at a minimum of 10 to 15 years of concentrated study with a master teacher, and hours of practice every day.
Most people who want to play for their own enjoyment can get great results within three to five years of study and practice.
What’s the Cost?
Our entire library of 300+ video lessons and popular songs are available for free, always. Our mission is to make music accessible to as many kids as possible around the world. This is one way in which we can fulfill that mission. In addition to a free account, we do have a Premium level of membership which provides access to practice materials and games. Premium memberships enable us to continue to make new content accessible to everyone.
