Playing the Piano in Seattle

As well as improving mood, enhancing concentration, and improving language learning skills, learning an instrument has a wealth of associated benefits to inspire a healthy, more contented lifestyle.

Seattle has a history when it comes to piano playing.

Firstly, the city is recognized as a hotbed for musical creativity in the past, spearheading such movements in rock and roll, jazz, and soul music.

Although guitar-heavy, rock bands such as Nirvana and Alice in Chains come to mind when thinking about Seattle. Further groups including Pearl Jam (Eddie Vedder) and Foo Fighters (Dave Grohl) have regularly used piano players within their music; you’d be surprised as to how many songs within their discography include the use of piano, keyboard & organ.

Eddie Vedder, considered to be one of the earliest and most influential grunge artists, is accredited for introducing organs and the piano into both Pearl Jam’s later work and that of his self-titled, solo productions.

It would be of no surprise that younger generations within Washington’s largest city have a desire to follow in the footsteps of such prolific and respected, Seattle-based artists that have gained worldwide success.

There is a wealth of music stores and specialized piano shops across this musically motivated city.

From jazz orientated to classical composition, there is also an abundance of professionals that can be hired for special events, and those who are at a professional level also offer their services to support and develop aspiring musicians.

As a resident of the Emerald City, be sure to know that there are also plenty of opportunities at your fingertips and aspiring pianists are often looking out for new students to accommodate their rise as full-time musicians.

Why Invest in a Piano Tutor?

Learning from a professional is a fantastic way to develop, regardless of what instrument or learning principle you wish to progress in.

Acquiring a tutor to support one's learning development is an age-old technique that has been used for centuries, and it is as popular now as it has ever been.

In relation to learning a musical instrument, accredited piano teachers have never been in such high demand as they are today.

Here are a few reasons why:

Regular sessions from a trained educator increases the rate of progression.

That’s right, multiple studies suggest that regular practice combined with support from those that are more advanced can reduce the time it takes to reach further stages of development.

Support on a one-to-one basis helps to iron out misconceptions & bad habits.

If an amateur is embarking upon a newly learned skill independently, this often paths the way for mistakes and common error.

If these aren’t identified and acted upon straight away, this can slow the process of development.

Working consistently with a professional creates opportunities.

If you are learning the piano in the hope of one day reaching an expert level, then there is no better way in discovering opportunities by becoming involved with those who have already reached such goals.

You can gain more understanding of further educational opportunities, as well as becoming more involved within your local music community to enhance chances for the future.

Writing pieces of music is no easy feat, especially when your pianist skills are reaching their peak. A mentor can inspire and contribute to the development of original ideas.

Also, a helping hand will allow you to feel supported during the creative process and professional suggestions will only allow you to prosper in the long run.

Signs of an A* Piano Tutor

The first positive sign is when your lessons are neither too hard nor too easy.

Your tutor must run each lesson in accordance with the student’s level of ability. Principally, learning must be done so sequentially; for example, you wouldn’t be learning complex algebra before having a fundamental understanding of the basic principles of multiplication would you?

There must be a clear understanding of progression and how one particular area of focus will lead to the next.

This allows both student and tutor to create short and long-term goals to help monitor progression, thus inspiring the student whilst building the individual’s drive and motivation to progress.

Learning the piano is an enjoyable yet complex process. With this understanding, it is important to know that your tutor will be responsible for teaching a range of learning principles.

From music theory & harmony, technique, sight-reading, learning chords to arrangement of progressions whilst playing, each of these areas should be implemented within the teaching process.

Separating the best from the rest also comes down to consistency.

It is advised that those who are committed to learning the instrument must have regular lessons, at least once a week for an hour.

Therefore, it is imperative that you can rely on your tutor to be there at every scheduled time, and that both the student and tutors schedule can run conducive, so there aren’t large gaps of time between each lesson.

Private Piano Tutors in Seattle

A quick search on the Superprof website will present you with several tutors that are currently looking to take on new students.

Each of the tutors' experiences varies, and each can be contacted directly through the website to request availability.

From competitive pianists with over ten years of experience to jazz-specific professionals and classical performers: the variation of experience must be suited to the student's planned outcomes and personal motivations.

It is quite self-explanatory; if you are interested in learning piano based on your passion for jazz, contact pianists that specialize in this genre.

This will allow you to gain a more relevant support network to help reach your aspired goals.

Is it about money?

Well, piano tutors offer their services at a range of different hourly rates, starting from $15-$60 per hour.

The price usually reflects the experience level of the tutor, so be sure to consider such factors before booking an extended set of lessons.
