The piano, as beautiful as it sounds, needs practice before it can sound lovely. Professional pianists study the piano for years upon years before they are able to perform in concert. I have played the piano since second grade and I have played other instruments since that time, but have always returned to the piano because I believe it to be one of the most challenging instruments…
