My Piano Journey

I’ve been playing piano for a while, but I’ve learned in a very different way from the traditional approach. I don’t read sheet music; instead, I mainly learn by ear and use YouTube videos with falling notes to help me learn pieces.

One of my biggest strengths is being able to listen to a song and figure out how to play it. I can usually listen to a piece for around 30 seconds, work out the notes, chords, and structure, and then start playing it. I also enjoy improvising, changing songs, creating my own versions, and combining different styles.

I’m not limited to one genre either. I enjoy playing whatever interests me, from modern pop songs such as Taylor Swift’s The Fate of Ophelia to classical pieces such as Czardas. If there’s a piece I really want to learn, I’m confident that I can figure it out and eventually play it.

For me, piano is less about following a set method and more about using my ear, creativity, and persistence to understand music. I love taking a song and making it my own, whether that means learning it by ear, improvising around it, or completely remixing and changing the style.
