What pianos did you used? Why did you switch in the middle of the year? I would love to be at your level in a year too XD Comment from : Michael Fanai |
|
Love how real and genuine this is Really cool! I’m in phase 0 lol I’m currently researching what to buy to begin learning Been wanting to learn for years now, finally taking the plunge brHow often did you practice? And for how long each session? Do you currently still have the same practice routine as you did in the beginning? Comment from : Nazha Darwech |
|
Thank you for this! I'm 36, and have always wanted to learn an instrument Asked the wife what she wanted me to learn, and she said guitar Buuuuut, we don't have one and we're a little tight on cash and we DO have a keyboard So I'll be starting on that Day by day, key by key, just get 1 percent better each session! Comment from : Jeremy The Exhorter |
|
21 here, still in the process of saving money to have my first 88 keys keyboard Hopefully I'll get it this year because I've always wanted to learn but never had the chance, no money, no opportunity and parents don't really care bout this sort of stuffs lol But today I was able to order my very first violin as a gift to myself for graduating Last month I've also pushed myself to learn something new which is cubing, I now own a few rubiks cubes and can solve up to the 6th order pretty decently I'm so happy there are so many people like me who are still willing to pursue what they've always wanted or are trying to do new things despite our "age" ❤️ Comment from : Nanan |
|
This is so inspiring I’m hoping to start lessons next month Comment from : Kemi B |

Weldone sir What materials do you recommend for learning the piano sir? Comment from : Ifeoluwa Bamise |

Honestly, I've been very lazy and self-excuse giving for a long time now (knowing very well none of them are valid) But as I watch this your year's progress, I really have no excuse brbrWatching on this at 2200HRS, 10 July 2023; I've made a decision and commitment to step up and get going Your video IS a God-send❤❤ Comment from : Ditiro Baruti |

My primary motivation for learning the piano as an adult is to take revenge on my friends for the number of times I had to hear them playing The Entertainer badly when we were at school Comment from : woody2505 |
|
Great Sir! You motivated me that it's possible to play a piano in year like youThanks so much ♥️♥️ Comment from : Harry Singh |

I love how you kept practicing the same songs until you got them all correctly (or nearly perfect!) Personally I struggle with consistency when I play and end up switching song from song Your playing is very inspiring, thank you for your video! Comment from : JoshAintHere |

Hi, I'm also 40 yrs old, and we bought a digital piano for my 3yr old daughter but usually ended up me playing it first time and trying to learn from it so far i'm enjoying it quite different from acoustic guitar I'm used to Comment from : Justin S |
|

|
Nice work Fur Elise always reminds me of the movie Elephant now tho 😐 Comment from : dooovde |
|
I've promised myself to immediately correct my posture That's very consistent in this videobrI'm 37 and proper intimidated about practising the guitar in the corner of my eye right now brI don't wanna be one of these people that have to give it up & decide to hang the instrument as a wall decoration, instead I've quit enough hobbies already Comment from : alas itsme |
|
Did you take private class? Comment from : firebird |
|
So many amateurs displaying their "skills", you get lost in an abyss of mediocrity Some people are impressed by so little Comment from : Paul Otto |
|
I'm a 40 yo mom with no musical background & want to learn piano for first time & encourage my 4yo daughter to learn how to play piano together Wish me luck Comment from : felissia |
|
Thanks, I have always wanted to learn piano, I literally dream of playing it like a pro I don't know why I never have, I guess I thought it would take too long to get good enough to have fun with it Which is a pretty stupid reason for not starting something So, at 36, seeing this vid is just great and the humbling I needed Thanks mate, I am very inspired to start now Comment from : Wilsonoff walks |
|
I wish I had one of these for my Bb scale as my playing progressed One Bb scale every 3 months between 7th grade and college Comment from : Shaun Kahler |
|
people need to stop using age as a justification for not being able to do something Comment from : Kurtis |
|
I will be turning 40 next Monday and brought home an organ my brother used to own - my son learned earlier than I do so I need to catch up with him My husband play guitar and surprisingly, he already gets the hang of it Oh wish me luck--it's my dream to play a musical instrument, being a Filipino where everyone sings, music is our life and everything Comment from : Drone Yas |
