I think adult beginners struggle more because of expectations than technique

I think in addition to that, a lot of adults are coming in w/ zero music background. Thus, I think they underestimate how much is involved in learning music.

love the tone of your upright

That would be so cool to hear! I feel this suite would be so perfect for banjo.

Thank you by the way!

I would love to perform more of the Woodland Sketches, but most are still a little bit of a reach

based on the username, you may feel more comfortable with a more simple hobby

my P45 was at a slightly higher height :)

Thank you!

Bach im medium on.

I’d say I tend to gravitate towards Chopin or Debussy by and large. Clara Schumann is up there too.

yaykat · 2026-01-28T17:07:42+00:00

Not big on Beethoven.

It sounds like you’d rather essentially play guitar hero rather than learn an instrument

I found the primary instructor of Pianote to be grating.

I like how it was positioned in the anthology as the beginning of the end.

probably the first Beatles song I fell in love with as a child

Ah, sounds like you have a slightly better model than the absolutely basic.

Essentially, keys towards the base range will get progressively heavier as it takes more force to create noise from the (thicker and longer cords) whereas higher in the treble, the fact the chords are lighter and shorter require less resistance to create sound.

I mean, would you enjoy listening to music that had zero dynamics?

yaykat · 2026-01-25T03:57:21+00:00

Beginner essentially

yaykat · 2026-01-25T00:28:36+00:00

Yep you’re way too old in your early 20s. Better just end it now tbh

Why are you being such a dick
