Do piano lessons help your brain? YES!

PlayPiano Posted on by

I’ve written about this subject many times and even have an Kindle ebook on the subject titled “Can Music Make You Smarter?”

Now the magazine Scientific American has come out with an article titled “Even a few years of music training benefits the brain.” I’m glad to see that scientists now are confirming what many of us knew years ago – it pays to take music lessons in more ways than just music!

About Duane

Duane Shinn (that would be me) has good news for you if you want to play the piano. He (me) has little fat hands & stubby little fingers - not at all suited for playing the piano - more suited to making mud pies or some such. I am also fairly uncoordinated with just average musical ability - certainly not a great piano player. But I've learned a ton about music over the years and people tell me I'm pretty decent at explaining how music works & how to progress more rapidly on the piano. Over the years I have developed about 150 techniques for conquering the piano. Most professional pianists can do these techniques, but very few can explain them in a way people can understand. I specialize in making complex techniques simple. I invite you to watch a few of my free videos and see some of these for yourself before making any decision about taking any of my courses.
