Love listening to music and dream of playing your favorite songs one day but don't know where to start?
Find yourself searching for "private piano lessons near me," only to realize they're way too expensive.
Struggle to fit lessons into your hectic schedule. It’s hard to find a time that works for both the instructor and yourself.
FINALLY, you sign up for some private lessons, only to find them too rigid and boring, leaving you unmotivated.
“Should I try another teacher? But that’s a big investment for a hobby I might not even enjoy... Maybe the piano just isn’t for me.”
Not sure what you’ve missed?
You need to get started on the piano, the easy and fun way!

The hardest part of playing the piano is not reading complicated sheet music or playing as fast as you physically can.
It’s getting started.
Getting Started on the Piano is carefully structured as slow, 1-on-1 play-along sessions you can easily follow. We’ll show you EXACTLY what to do, helping you build confidence as you progress.

Lesson 1
Skip the boring theory! The best way to learn is by playing. In your first lesson, you'll explore the keyboard, get familiar with the notes, and discover where to place your fingers—all while playing along on a fun, beginner-friendly track. It's all about getting comfortable with your new musical friend!
/marketing/pianote/lead-gen/getting-started/thumb-02.webp)
Lesson 2
Now that you're familiar with the keyboard, it's time to take it up a notch! Learn to play chords with your right hand while your left hand handles the bass notes. Develop hand coordination and build confidence as you bring your first melody to life.

You're playing real music now! In this lesson, learn one of the most popular chord progressions in modern music. This beginner-friendly progression is your ticket to playing hundreds of beloved classics like "Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis Presley and "Let It Be" by The Beatles.

"Life is busy, and it’s tough to predict when you will have time to practice and learn. But learning the piano is easier than I thought it would be. The lessons are little units. It’s like how you eat an elephant: in biteable chunks!
I love that I can learn on my own schedule whenever I have an opportunity. It feels modern and progressive, and it can work for anyone."

"I work many hours, and I’m a mom of a teenager and a 5-year-old. I took private lessons for over a year, but it was hard for me to continue because of my busy schedule.
Pianote’s lessons are laid out so well, mimicking private lessons but allowing you to learn at your own pace. Plus, it’s way less stressful than private lessons.
I’m super happy and pleased with my decision to join Pianote!"

"I've learned that it doesn't have to be such a huge time commitment to really start to learn it because I'm doing this for me. I'm not doing this as a course. I'm not doing this because somebody else wants me to learn it. This is finally for me and something I want to do for myself.
I tried some piano books and I tried some of the courses, where you can plug a piano into an iPad and then try to play along with it. That didn't very work very well for me. But when I saw Lisa teaching basic chords and making music from that, that was very inspiring."

"I first wanted to play the piano as a child. I also wanted to learn ballet. But we couldn’t afford both, so I said I would learn the piano sometime later in life. Well, I’m 66 years old now and I’m having a ball! Anyone should try this, and it is never too late to learn!"

"Hey, Lisa and Pianote and anyone watching this. This is Marce.
I just want to record a quick message to say Thank you for all your help.
It's been such a treat to be with the piano. Finally, the instrument really feels like an instrument that I can enjoy playing, rather than just being a pretty piece of furniture sitting in a corner, collecting dust in my living room (laughs).
So once again, I appreciate everything you guys do - all the support, everything. It's just been awesome. Thank you so much."

Whether you’re a complete beginner or someone who played piano long ago and wants a refresher, this course is designed for you!
No! In fact, we think age is an advantage. Adults are often driven to learn music because that’s what they enjoy (and not because their parents want them to). As an adult, you’ve also had lifelong exposure to music. You understand rhythm, melody, and may even be able to figure out tunes by ear.
You will explore the keyboard, learn finger placement, and coordinate your left and right hands while playing along to beautiful, beginner-friendly tracks. Plus, you’ll learn a popular chord progression to play classic songs like "Can't Help Falling in Love" and "Let It Be."
Yes! It is 100% free. You don’t need to enter your credit card info or any payment method. Our dream is to inspire more musicians, and the best way to do it is to make getting started on the piano fun, easy, and absolutely free for everyone.
We need your email to send you the free lessons. Plus, we’re (secretly) hoping to build a relationship with you by sharing our awesome piano lessons, free resources, and any special offers we think you might be interested in.
Absolutely! You can revisit the lessons anytime by accessing them from the email we send you.
Any piano you can easily get your hands on would be a great start! If you want to invest in a new one, consider an 88-key keyboard (or at least 61 key) with touch-sensitive keys, so the sound varies depending on how hard you play.
