Have you played other instruments?
Hi Maggior,
thank you very much for your nice words. Yes, the 6th month was a huge leap :) Before that, I had practiced rhythm and basic chords almost every day since I really had a deficit in that area.
I started to play the piano a year ago but also without a teacher and I had to stop after 10 months because I went to France for a year to live and work there. I couldn't take the piano with me and that's why I had to pause. It's only after I came back in May 2016 that I was able to re-learn it. That's what I am currently trying to do.
In fact, my whole project aims at learning instruments as an adult without a teacher, just by the means of online resources.
Anyway, back to your question. Yes, I did play the piano for about a year as my first instrument but as you can hear on the progress video, my rhythm was a pure mess ^^ It wa interesting to come back to the piano and now my other instruments after having spent half a year on the guitar.
Cheers,
Lukas
