Daring to express oneself with music
The piano in adulthood
Starting the piano as an adult
There is no doubt that playing the piano as an adult requires a
certain amount of courage and energy
If you don’t dream of becoming a piano star in three years, but
if you dream of enjoying yourself, of living the music and your
musical gift to the fullest, then maybe it’s time to get
started.
5 reasons to learn piano as an adult
- Live the joy of making music
- Discover your body differently
- Take a moment for yourself, only for you
- Feel the music come into you and manage to tame it
- Play small musical works in front of your friends
The piano is really within everyone’s reach, it depends
of each to choose how to approach it
Sabine Steffan teaches with a classical base both for the
positioning of the body and hands, as well as for learning. Yet
you do not need to know solfeggio, because you will learn it at
the same time as the instrument.
Reprendre le piano à l'âge adulte
Get back to her piano
If you go on the Internet,
you realize that more and more adult piano classes are being
offered, not much is said about false beginners. these
adults who have practiced piano when they were children are
returning to music once they are adults. This is a common
practice in Scandinavian countries or in Canada, for
example.
It is a recognized source of equibook and well-being.
Because in adulthood the piano is made with a more serene
vision.
As a certified music therapist, and as a musician Sabine
Steffan has met many people who have joined the music world
sometimes late, and for their own good, that’s why she
decided, after the Covid crisis, to open its classes to
adults who wish to resume piano lessons.
Interpretation of works
Express and make sensitive a musical work, preparation for
concerts
It is not as a pianist
that Sabine Steffan speaks during these sessions, but as
an artist and musician of high level.
The presentation of a piece requires a musical vision of
the style but also a knowledge of the time, of the
resources of the piano and the score, and of course, of
the many traditions around the interpretations.
