Several years ago, there was an experiment conducted by scientists at the University of California at Irvine in 1993. (published in Nature) had college students listen to Mozart Sonata for two Pianos in D Major, a relaxation tape or silence. Immediately following these sessions, students took a test of spatial reasoning (the ability to put puzzles) and student performance improved dramatically after listening. The reason is because music and spatial abilities share the same pathways in the brain.
Another experiment was carried out subsequently by researchers at the Appalachian State University and the researchers were successful and the connection of music to promote the "brain power".
Giving pre-school children (ages 3-4 years. Antiguos) training for 8 months. The children were divided into 4 groups: keyboard lessons,
singing lessons, computer classes and no experience. After 8 months of this treatment, children were tested on their ability to put together puzzles (spatial-temporal reasoning) and recognize shapes (spatial reasoning recognition) and the results were amazing! They realized that only children who had taken the keyboard has the experience improvement in spatial-temporal test. (Children do not yet show any change in spatial recognition.)
Another interesting observation I made is the connection between the medical profession and the profession of music - a vast majority of MD's are classically trained musicians! I found a lot and have asked them the same question - how to make the connection between the doctor and the music - and the response I've had is that they are very complicated and require a little focus and mathematical thinking in many directions than once. Is achieved by many years of training in either and / or in both fields, for the same reason - to enhance each other. So for them - the similarity in brain function and focus is clear and useful for physicians and musicals. It will be interesting to see the results of further study in this area. Currently, there is no conclusive scientific proof of the relationship between doctor and Musical.
Now - 5 Tips for piano lessons!
1) Interest:
Evaluate your child's interest. Is this something she likes - or is your dream? The child must show genuine interest in music and a keyboard to their learning experience to be a pleasant and successful. If they are not interested - you wonder why even be pursued? Is it because you have an inner desire that? It is never too late to start! Subscribe to piano lessons for yourself, if that is the case. I have students of all ages - some played when they were children then quit. Since you are older, and only regret that promised a new day of selection. Then there are others who always had the desire but not the opportunity and are now retired with time on their hands. They have become a piano virtuoso! I give you these examples to give you beautiful hope and a push - psssst! It is never too late! The student must be genuinely interested.
2) Instrument:
It's good to start piano lessons at an electronic keyboard. Over time, the student knows in which direction they would like to take the piano lessons. If only for personal enjoyment, it's good to stay with a keyboard.
If training for classical piano - then the student should be changed to an acoustic piano. In my experience as a piano teacher, I realized that a spinet piano (those with low back), unless it is given as a gift, should not be purchased. It would be better to buy a "Vertical", which is a Baby Grand Piano, but instead of the strings are horizontal to vertical. The reason is that the action of the keys is technically much better for the student by the hand and is substantially better sound to the ear.
3) Teacher:
Questions and get feedback from others about their teachers. Check the background of the teacher. Where does education, how long they have been teaching, where to teach, what are your surroundings like? Ask students how current teachers are patient and how they feel during the lesson. You must have a very good idea about how to master the current students are progressing. The master of the mix with your child's personality. Remember, this is a choice! At school children have to adapt to the teacher has been assigned to them, and that is good. They learn to get along with different personalities, but a piano is the extra-curricular activity and be nice to look forward.
4) Schedule:
Children can be easily surpassed by far in their calendar. As adults - we have experienced ourselves and the overhead is so counterproductive! It is highly advisable to limit the activities so that children not be pulled in too many directions.
Once the activities have been chosen, I found my own children and students to write a daily schedule, everything is done and there is no excuse to forget to practice.
5) Dedication:
Once a program is in place, practice the piano will become part of the daily routine. After awhile, the student will not be so "concerned" about time, but they want to achieve the objectives set by the teacher. The student needs time for the ship to go to the mechanics of music. Encourage them to listen to a wide range of styles and gender to develop their own taste in music. At an early stage, can be embedded in a dedicated student to participate in recitals, talent shows and Worship Services. It takes diligence and commitment - even to sacrifice a beautiful piano craftsmanship.
