Whenever you go to a musical concert, you enjoy a lot there and some of you desire to play the instruments like they do. Most of the people take up the musical instruments because of that reason. People prefer learning the most popular instruments first of all.
Learning any instrument isn’t easy. It takes a lot of patience and practice. Sometimes, there is a need to invest money as well to learn some instruments. But there are some instruments which are very easy to learn.
Below are some popular instruments that can be learnt very easily at any age.
1. Classic Guitar
Guitar is the most popular musical instrument. You can see it at almost every musical concert. It is quite easier to learn as well. One can easily master the sounds of guitar in very less time given the appropriate time to practice. Learning guitar doesn’t take much time.
Most people who choose to learn musical instruments, go for the guitar first of all. You should go for the classic guitar first of all which has only one string and it will be quite easier to learn as compared to guitar with sixteen strings.
Good thing about guitar is that it is a confidence booster and you can get socialized with the groups based on this skill.
2. Keyboard
Keyboard is the second most popular musical instrument according to my opinion. Most people know it with the name of piano. The good thing about piano is that you can create almost any sound with the help of it.
Most people don’t know but there is a difference between piano and keyboard. Keyboard is portable but piano isn’t. Moreover, the sound produced by keyboard is kind of electric while the piano sound isn’t.
Keyboard is a perfect option for any beginner. This instrument is easy to learn at any age. It is the perfect instrument for kids to learn. Advantages of learning a keyboard are enhancing motor skills, improving the memory and developing concentration.
3. Drum Set
Drum set is the oldest instrument in the musical history. Drums come in different sizes and shapes and you can opt to learn a specific one. Some drums are beaten with sticks while some are beaten by hands to produce sounds. Some drums are tunable and some are not.
The sound produced by drum is because of the vibration of the membrane of the drum. Upon getting hit, the membrane vibrates and produce the sound. This membrane is known as “head” of the drum. The hollow body between two membranes is called “shell”.
You can learn drum with less effort but it takes some time because there are many moving parts and achieving control over sound can take some time. Drumming is interactive and it can help to relive stress and disappointments. The drum is all about timing and coordination. Make sure to get those right.
4. Piano
Piano is a very famous musical instrument. Piano is quite tricky to learn but once you learned it, it will be a piece of cake. Piano gives you escape from the reality and it is something that you can play according to your mood. You can play almost any sound with the help of piano.
Modern day piano has 36 black keys and 56 white keys. So, you have to master 88 keys. Historians say that piano was invented in 1700. There is no particular date with reference but it’s been around for a while.
As I mentioned before that learning piano is quite tricky so you might consider hiring a tutor. There are some online courses as well which are offered to teach piano. You should definitely take a look at that as well. Learning can piano can take months. So, you have to be consistent and practice daily to master the rhythms of piano.
You should consider buying a piano for yourself because the daily practice is only possible if you would have a piano at your home.
5. Flute
Flute is also one of the popular musical instruments. Flute can fool at first because you might think that it is very easy to play. But playing flute is tricky and it takes some serious skill to produce particular sounds.
Flute is played by opening and closing of specific holes at specific times to produce particular sounds. So, it won’t be as easy as you assume. It can take some time to learn it as well.But it is a decent musical instrument that can be learnt for killing boredom.
Professional flutes are made up of wood while beginner flutes are made up of nickel or brass. These nickel flutes produce sharper sounds and those sharper sounds are better for a beginner because it helps him/her to understand where is the mistake. Pros can handle the wooden flutes because they know every inch of it and the sound produced by the wooden flute is dark and deep.
6. Cello
Cello is similar to guitar in appearance but they differ a lot in the sounds they produce. Learning cello is difficult and nothing about it is easy. You can easily get manipulated by the sound because it gets transformed so easy.
No doubt, it is hard to learn cello but once you developed the passion for it. You won’t get manipulated by sound. Cello requires patience and a lot of practice. You might consider hiring a good teacher to teach you how to play. This isn’t something that you can learn at your own in free time. You need someone to guide you through the strings and sounds. If you know how to read the musical notes that can help you too.
