The piano is the most popular instrument in the world! There are so many reasons for this but here are the top 4 reasons for you to learn to play piano:
1) The Piano Has Its Own Unique Sound
One of top 4 reasons to learn to play piano is the unique sound it makes. No other instrument comes close to the type and quality of music generated by the piano, which consequently, is a good thing. High quality music requires that its instruments sound different from each other, yet synthesize in a pleasing way. That's because when we take the opportunity to appreciate music, we're really identifying the unique sounds of each instrument, and we're enjoying (1) how each one of those sounds compliment other sounds, and (2) how each individual sound contributes to the entire song. If it weren't for the unique sound of the piano, our music would literally change.
2) The Piano Has An Outstanding Dynamic Range
Another reason to learn to play piano is for its dynamic range. The piano is known for its large range of soft and loud tones. Played with a combination of delicate touches and pedal-work, this instrument can whisper soft passages and gently tickle your music bone. Later, it can play as loud as an entire band and give the impression that a one-man show is actually an ensemble of accomplished musicians! Such a large range gives this instrument a unique ability to instill dramatic interpretations and experiences.
3) The Piano Has A Large Pitch Range
A third reason to learn the piano is its pitch range. With over 80 unique pitches, the piano offers one the largest range of notes. This gives its musicians quite a palette to paint with! The pitch range of other string instruments, such as the violin or cello, are somewhat limited when compared to the range of the piano. An expanded pitch range with these types of instruments is _possible_, but it's not as readily available or accessible as it is on the piano. Only violinists with years of experience for example, can emulate the pitch range of a piano. Beginning pianists however, can enjoy this full scale of notes immediately.
4) The Piano Plays All Three Elements of Music
One more reason (but certainly not the last) is its versatility. No other instrument can play the melody, rhythm, AND harmony of a song at once. Only the piano is capable of playing all three elements of music and although they aren't easy to learn at first, practicing how to play them together will propel your status from beginner to advanced. This is largely due to the fact that playing the melody, rhythm, and harmony of a song simultaneously portrays the illusion of multiple instruments and musicians, when in actuality, there's only one genius behind the madness. And that genius is you!
