How To Read Piano Sheet Music — Animation

If piano sheet music looks more like ancient hieroglyphics to you, don’t panic. Learning to read sheet music can be a daunting task. However, with some proper direction you’ll pick it up in no time!

How should you learn to read music?

When you learnt to read and write, did you treat them as the same task? Of course not. Controlling your hand movements with a pen, learning the shapes of letters, understanding how letters join together are all a radically different skill from using your eyes to figure out what a combination of letters spells.

Learning to read music is the same.

Playing the piano is a radically different skill from reading the sheet music in front of you. Many badly experienced teachers try and teach these two elements together — but you know better! Learn them as separate skills that overlap. That way you’ll be successful quicker.
