[Carl Carlson IV]

It's been quite a while, but I've had some success. I haven't dedicated as much time to this as I would have liked, but I'm happy with my ability up to this point. I tried watching some videos online for training and what not but nothing really helped.

As for learning songs I found what worked best for me was printing off the sheet music and writing C, C#, A, B, etc above the note and slowly learning each section. I still can't pick up a sheet of music and just play it, but I'm slowly getting better.

I find it more enjoyable to just freestyle and create my own stuff. Nothing is very complicated that I have came up with, but I find it much more fun than destroying the timeless tunes of others! I have come up with a couple of jingles mashed together that are fun to play, so if you want to learn the piano one way to go at it is to just start pushing keys, see what sounds like what and what goes together. It's pretty simple to create a neat sounding melody!
