The central instrument in Western musical culture is the piano. It has an immense tradition of performance and composers. To this day, musicians, both composers and players use the piano as the basis of their activities on other more technologically advanced instruments or heavy amplification. There is also an established tradition of young kids learning it, so you should try to organize the best piano lessons in Vancouver BC for them.
Piano playing has a massive repertoire of composed pieces, from the classical concert masterpieces to the ordinary practise exercises. There is no shortage of music available to those trying to master a technical aspect. Those who are seeking a specific style of music, or who want to specialize in a particular genre, can research and obtain the music that they desire. Other instruments may be limited to a specific genre or era.
Technically, piano architecture offers a massive range of pitch (or notes). Several octaves of notes are available on the keyboard, permanently. The pianist can therefore build chords of distinct density which are not possible on other instruments. Consonance between high and low notes is also available. An instrument such as the guitar, which is also popular at present, cannot do any of this because it has only six notes to work with at any one time.
Piano music is ideal for public recitals, too. It has enough volume to fill the room, whether in the home or socially. Popular preference can dictate what is played, as well, because the repertoire of the instrument is so vast. Where more than one person wants to play it, such as a duet on one instrument, it is more able to allow this than others.
Generally, music is an important part of the child's development. Research has shown that certain parts of the brain develop differently or more amply if the child participates in music or masters an instrument. These attributes are then transferable to other activities.
Psychologically, they derive benefit from music too. Their playing elicits the approval and recognition of the people around them, and they learn about the relationship between effort and reward, or why they should take a longer-term view of achieving their goals in life. Technically, no instrument is easy to master and they learn to apply themselves on a regular basis to practise and for significant periods of time.
Recognition itself is not a valid goal, but it assists in learning how to address others in public or endure being the centre of attention. Their public self-presentation is enhanced by playing for others. Some kids are pathologically shy, and this can be treated or even relieved entirely through their performance for an audience.
A good piano teacher is able to take all of these factors into account in training the next generation of pianists. The pupil might not be interested in pursuing a career as a musician in Vancouver BC, yet they will still be able to derive benefit from the instrument. Their piano lessons should enable this type of development in their playing, as something that they can apply for the rest of their lives.
