What Is The Fastest Way For Adults Learning To Play The Piano?

If you have kids, by all means get them started taking piano lessons from the very best teacher you can find. Kids need a warm body along side them to help them focus, correct their fingering, help them learn to read, and methodically work through all the elements of piano playing. Make sure the teacher knows and teaches music theory too – you want your child to understand what he or she is playing, and to eventually be able to arrange songs and improvise.

For the adult who has the time and discipline to do so, I would recommend the same thing – find the best teacher you can and start from square one, learning to read music and proceed through all the standard piano literature. But for the busy adult who just wants to come home from work and play for their own enjoyment and relaxation and doesn’t have the desire or time for formal piano lessons, then the fastest way to start playing the songs you want to play is to learn chords and chord symbols.

This video is for those folks ONLY – not for others who have other goals in music. Over the years I have taught LOTS of those people – many doctors and professional people who have no time or energy other than to play for their own enjoyment. And lots of them have told me how relaxing it is to come home exhausted from a busy day at the hospital or office, kick off their shoes, and play some song that has been going through their mind that day. So this is the fastest and most fun way for adults learning to play the piano.
