Do you like to take your time studying 4 years in a Music School just to learn the music or piece of other people? You are definitely right if you think that this is not a good idea. However, there are many music students who still do this everyday.
In front of the piano, they sit and stare at the sheet music of a composer who have longed passed away. They are always being advised to play it correctly. Did you happen to hear this rubbish? Picture this out – it is like a blooming writer being obligated to imitate the work of another author. Yes, that is just like what the classical piano students perform. They imitate.
It is not creativity that comes out in this manner, even though many people consider this act as one. It is a manner of re-creating. The point behind this is to provide the people who are advised how to listen to music an opportunity to listen to what they think is "great" music. Alongside with classical music is pomposity and it only stays alive because the minority desire to listen to it.
Believe it or not, I love classical music. However, I find it unwise to allocate my time to learn playing music that has already been created. What I want to happen when I take a hold of piano is to unite with my own foundation and unleash the music within me to come out naturally. My goal in life is to become a creative person. And I do believe that within us, there comes a great composer.
All we need to have is the aspiration to create and express one's self through the music. But is it hard? Of course not! It is quite easy just let your fingers maneuver and do the work smoothly. You may think that this is unbelievable, but this is real. The music students were very much cheated in this way that their desire to create has been shattered. It is sad to know that most piano students nowadays are having this confusion.
The greatest music has already been created so why should one worry? The response to this question is very vital to our own dignity as piano players. The thought of having to create another good music is simply make us feel great. That is the thing that we need in order to produce a music that is very pleasing to the ears.
Being the author of your own music or piece doesn't only mean that you have to be very expert on the piano. It is more than that. That is the willingness to create your very own piece by heart without being afraid to have some errors along the way. Having all the mistakes and challenges makes the world of learning colorful and memorable. It reminds us that playing piano should not aim for perfection; it should be letting all the mistakes guide you to become the best piano player that you can be!
