Adult Beginner Piano Progress 🎹 from October 2023

I started to read music sheet and practice piano from October 2023. Before that, I play chord on piano but did not know how to read music sheet and play piano. It’s my record of piano journey in order to motivate beginners like me.

At the first month I used “Burnam Piano – A dozen a day” to learn the basic. It’s hard to get used to play with both hands and reading music score.

Little by little I get used to play piano and,
I learn “Canon – Pachelbel” easy ver.

Still it was hard to read music score. So I used Piano keys stamp and write on the music score. Also I learn how to read music score. I learned a lot from reading score on desk, without playing piano. Of course playing piano is essential. But it was nice to read, write and understand the score. How chord works, bass note, and octave movement of notes (interval on notes).

I started “For Elise – Beethoven” (easy ver.) I only play easy ver.

I started to play with music score, and it is without writing “Do Re Mi” on score(normal score). I upgraded from super beginner score to beginner score. At 4 month passed (Month 5).

At Month 5, I start to play easy ver. of
“La Campanella – Franz Liszt”
“Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence – Ryuichi Sakamoto / 戦場のメリークリスマス – 坂本龍一”
“Gymnopedie No.1 – Erik Satie”
“energy flow – Ryuichi Sakamoto 坂本龍一”

At month 6, I start to play
“Asience – Ryuichi Sakamoto 坂本龍一”
“Hanon”
and learn music theory; scale, chord progression and mode.

At month7
“The Girl from Ipanema”
“Just the two of us”

Still it’s impossible to play smoothly, but I continue my piano journey. 🙂
