Piano Playing & Tapping, Similar in some ways. Options

[Layzer]

I took a piano class at my University last year and did very well and enjoyed the class very much. It enabled me to refresh my music reading abilities (Jazz band in middle school). It allowed me to translate or transpose (not sure which is the correct term) music from piano to guitar and vice versa. Just a while ago i noticed myself on my keyboard playing a few simple triads independently at a fast tempo and i realized that tapping with both hands felt very normal and tension free due to my piano days.

I then started making very simple fast tempo "licks" on the piano and simply count intervals and play it with tapping on guitar. Now i see the fretboard in a much clearer way when tapping and playing in general.

Piano is a very easy instrument to learn and i recommend trying it out for those who haven't, it will only help with your musical knowledge. That goes for other instruments as well.

probably should have put this in another section...sorry!

Maybe Andrew can move it.
