Playing the Piano

By:Gievirlyn

Once upon a time, there was a person who liked the piano. Too bad that person wasn't you. Boo hoo hoo.
Imagine
a cool voice narrating this newspaper, but then again, it's only me! HAHA!
LOOK! The page is breaking!
Just because I got bored!
...

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
Bored
Oh yeah, if you can't read this, then highlight everything! (Or double click, that works too.. I guess...) :D

Now, when you think of the piano, what do you think of? I know! You probably think about hitting a bunch of keys on the keyboard or the piano and you get music. WELL THAT'S TOTALLY WRONG! If you didn't think this, then thank you. You sure are compassionate.


    The piano is an instrument made after the harpsichord around who knows when. It might have been around the late 1600s or 1700s. I can't remember. My piano teacher told me this when she taught me, but who remembers? Surely not me. Make sure if you want to play the piano, listen to your teacher and remember. You'll regret it if you don't, so remember your lessons children!

    So, if you want to learn the piano, you must master the techniques of a jujitsu master. Thinking about karate? NOPE! I said jujitsu! Just kidding, you just have to practice your hand fingering and other stuff like curling your fingers. Yes, you must curl your fingers like curly fries and deal with it!(Not really) One example of this is when you type. You keep you fingers curled and type, and that is used in piano, to make sure you hit the note correctly and play it super softly or very crazily. Just one note here, if you are to play the piano, please don't hurt the piano when you can't get the technique right and start raging like an idiot. IT DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO YOU!

And now, more information on how to play the piano.

Step 1: Ok, you already know this, but you have to have a piano. Duuhhh.

Step 2: I don't know what to do next! Oh WAIT! You can just buy a book that shows you how to teach yourself the piano OR get an actual teacher to teach you. You can even pick an easy song and teach yourself! By yourself! ALL ALONE
! I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TEACH YOU, FOR I AM NOT THERE. HA!

    Ok now, so as some of you already know, there are 52 white keys and 36 black keys on the piano, totaling 88 keys! Yea, that's sure not exciting. But here is something you may not know. I have been playing the piano for quite a while, only just 5 years. I still haven't mastered it, but here is the piano portion from some anime's opening. I have been working really hard on it, so listen! That's an order from your lieutenant.

If you don't listen, then you are a cold hearted person who eats lonely blue cheese and hates cheese. Confusing? Yea right.

Now, if you want to leave now,
LEAVE NOW


I will play other portions of songs so you can see different styles of music.

The order of the songs will start with: This Game, a theme from an anime(Fairy Tail), Doubt and Trust, and Hikari (by Elisa)
[ IT'S TOO HARD! Hurts my hands TT^TT ]

If you PROBABLY can play This Game and you WANT to play it,
then go on youtube and use the link from there because I don't know how to give
you the link. :L(Om nom nom) Look up Animenz This Game and look at the description to see the printout.
Then look up the rest because that's life.
