Step-by-Step

I come from a family full of musicians. I grew up in a house that was always filled with music. The holidays were the best of times, the whole family would get together and celebrate with good food and live music. It’s most unfortunate that when my grandfather passed away the whole family basically fell apart and the holidays were never the same. My grandmother died from a broken heart just a few short years later along with several other family members that used to fill the place up with their wonderful musical talents.

I never got to learn to play much of anything, heck I can hardly read music much less play it. But I think the time has come for me to give it a try. I’ve found a website at Sightreadingtips.com that offers sight reading music exercises for folks like me that know the basics but are struggling with weak music reading abilities. They say that mastering piano sight reading is one of the most challenging tasks that most piano players come across, so I am going to give it a try.

I have my grandfather’s piano here at my place, basically collecting dust throughout the years. Every now and then I get on it and give it a try and just get frustrated. I think that if I learn how to read the music that I would manage to do a bit better, maybe even find some one that can help me along. Some thing to contemplate.
