Could I just practice with a keyboard? What about the pedals on a piano? How does a keyboard make up for not having those? Thanks.

I’m eighteen and I just started taking piano classes. I have some experience with the instrument and I really, really want to master it. My teacher says it’ll take twelve years to be a Grade Eight pianist. I told him practicing three hours a day I could get it done in six and he laughed. Is it possible?
I basically told him I don’t have twelve years. I was fourteen when I was introduced to the piano and my high school teacher said I was a fast and excellent learner, but I ditched it for another four years.

I was wondering how a pianist in an orchestra gets paid…I am thinking about maybe pursuing a career in music. If anyone out there has been in an orchestra before, or if anyone knows how much they get paid, please tell me.

Can you include how much a teen/youth orchestra gets paid?

About a year ago, I found a website for a pianist who played beautiful soundtrack arrangements, especially Disney. You could listen and download his songs for free. I’m not positive, but I believe he was French, (just to give more info about who I’m talking about). Does anybody know the url of his website or can offer an alternative website for advanced soundtrack songs performed on piano?

fled asked:


How old should you be? Because I’m fourteen and I just started piano, but I really want to become a pianist… I’m still bad at it, but I have some friends who are pretty good and they all started when they were seven or eight. Do I have any chance? How can I make it possible? D:

pianotime asked:


I really love the piano, and I would give anything to be a great pianist and perform for the rest of my life. The thing is, I’m no prodigy, no world class performer, I’m just a teenager trying to learn as much as I can before auditions for college. Do I have a chance to make it in the world as a pianist? Is it a believable dream???
