The first keyboard instrument was invented in ancient Greece around 300 B.C., but the first electrical keyboard like the ones we use today was designed in 1960s.
The piano is an acoustic instrument which means that the sound is not produced digitally you don’t have to plug it in the electricity! Keyboard is a digital instrument that doesn’t require strings or any other kind of a music box because the sound is produces “artificially”.
The keys on the piano are weighted, which means that they require a certain amount of pressure in order to make a sound. The keys on most of the keyboards are not weighted, which makes the feeling while playing a digital instrument slightly different.
Even though a professional keyboard should consist of 88 keys, some keyboards are made smaller, most of the time because it makes them more child-friendly. The very small ones are considered toys and not proper instruments.
The market for keyboards is very big and there is a lot of options. While choosing your instrument, it is always best to ask your coach for their professional advise that’s going to be based on your specific needs. The only thing to keep in mind- there should always be 88 keys!
Depending on your preferred musical style, you should choose keyboard in case classical music is not something you wish to perform in the future. Pop & Rock music are al-most always played exclusively on the keyboards, as they produce a completely diffe-rent sound that is in accordance with modern music.
Since the sound is produced artificially, no musical box is needed in the instrument. Pi-anos are big because they store a lot of strings, hammers and other tools necessary to produce a sound, whereas a keyboard works more or less like a computer.
Since it is manufactured more cost-effectively than pianos and do not require any work being done by a human hand, they are much more affordable. So, even the highest- quality keyboards are still more affordable than most of the acoustic pianos.
Not necessarily. The volume can be adjusted on the keyboard. Amplifiers are used for playing in very big halls where only the highest volume of the instrument still wouldn’t cover the whole room
For complete beginners, any keyboard instrument will serve the purpose. However, since the keys on the keyboards are not weighted like they are on the piano, the technique for playing those instruments is going to be slightly different, once a certain level is reached.
Digital pianos are designed with the goal to imitate the sound and the feeling of an acoustic piano, whereas keyboards create much wider range of sounds and do aim to look or feel like an acoustic piano, seeing as they are used for playing a completely different musical style.
Stage-fright is a completely natural and normal process that everyone goes through before a performance- even professional singers experience it. Doing breathing exercises before performing, being prepared and confident can help reduce the pre-show anxiety
The difference between a synthesizer and a keyboard is that a synthesizer is able to create its own sound while the keyboard can not.
No. Keyboard is a general term used for every instrument that consists of keys (pianos, organs, digital pianos, synthesizers…). When people refer to digital keyboards, in most cases they think of synthesizers, seeing how they are used in pop & rock music
Even though any size of the instrument can be used for very young beginners, very soon they need to be able to play the full range, which is 88 keys. For that reason, practicing on a professional keyboard is strongly advised and encouraged.
Yes! Learning how to play an instrument requires some practise, but the only special talent you need to have is dedication and love for music.
In order for you to progress fast, at least twice a week is advised.
It depends- if you visit your classes regularly and practise at home at least 15 minutes a day, you will be able to play some simple tunes in less then a month. On average, after two or three months you will be able to play some famous pop songs.
Yes. Even though the feeling is going to be a bit different at the beginning, playing any keyboard instrument requires the same technique.
Yes. Wordly renowned boards such as Trinity offer professional exams in keyobards, focusing on modern music.
It’s never too late to start. With the help of our coaches, your lessons will be tailored to your needs and skill level.
Since we need to use our fingers for playing, taking keyboard lessons before the age of 3 isn’t as beneficial, as the hands and especially fingers are still very soft so pressing firmily on keys could cause some discomfort. The attention span of children below the age of 5 is also not very long, so it is hard or them to focus for the full duration of the lessonn.
Even though keyboard-syllabus do not require student to understand musical theory, learning the basics is strongly encouraged
Yes. Even though most of the work is done during the lessons, for your fastest progress you should always repeat what you learned during the lesson at home.
Our teachers will be more than happy to guide during the preparation process- starting with song selection, mastering the difficult parts and showing you how to perform like a professional.
Playing at a professional level is a long process that requires dedication, perseverance and patience, but don’t feel discouraged! With constant supervision by a professional, the process could be much faster and your dreams could come true sooner than you expect!
You can practise on your piano, but you should always keep in mind that the keys are going to feel slightly different on a keyboard.
Playing short and fast notes requires practise and skill since the fingers first have to be trained to move independetly and fast. If you practise regularly, this process can happen pretty fast.
It is not required to play scales while learning the keyboard, but keep in mind that scales improve the technique, so playing them every once in a while could be beneficial.
Not necessarily. However, warming up the fingers increaces their agility and enables you to play smoother.
