Easy Piano Sheet Music For Beginners
Did you know that piano sheet music for beginners can be easily download from the internet without any cost? Some would agree that this is an advantage but even so there's still that question on how to easily read and understand it especially if you're just a beginner. There's no need to fret though since there are five easy-to-do steps on how to effectively read piano sheets, as well as, a vast number of websites that you can consider whenever you need to download any.
First step to first understand that there are seven letters that comprise the piano notes such as A B C D E F G and this is the same with a piano sheet music. If you still find this confusing then try to label the sheet with the letters starting from A to G so that you can be familiar with it.
You can actually read the piano sheet better if you find where the Middle C is located. Also determine where it is on the piano. This second step is easy since you just need to look for the always near the ledger line. Another hint is to find the middle of your left and right hand staffs on the piano. Sure enough you will be able to spot the Middle C without any hassle.
The third step is to locate where the each music staff is located both on your sheet and piano. Once you position your left and right hand on the piano, both comprise a staff with five lines and four spaces. You can easily spot the bass and treble clef since the bass consists of three bottom space notes that read ACE while the treble clef has four space notes that read FACE.
The fourth step is to simply remember that the phrase "Every Great Bands Deserve Fame" can be associated with the five notes of the treble clef. On the other hand, the phrase "Great Bands Deserve Fame Always" can be attributed to the five notes of the bass clef. The fifth and last step is that whenever you press two space notes and two line notes you will tend to miss out on one white note every time.
There are several websites that you can visit in order to download all sorts of piano music sheets and other resources. Most of these sites offer them for free. If you prefer reading PDF files then the ideal websites for you to visit are Pianostreet.com and gmajormusictheory.org. The latter is a website that also offers piano courses, as well as, midi files that go together with the sheets that you download.
Another website which is 8notes.com offers free ready-to-print sheets in several formats including GIF image file, PDF, and Scorch to name a few. Sibeliusmusic.com is another website that also offers free sheets in Scorch and MP3 format. Indeed, all these websites have the available piano sheet music that you will need to learn piano quickly without any cost.

What Are the Different Kinds of Weighted Keys on Digital Pianos?
You may have decided to purchase a digital piano instead of an acoustic piano for many reasons, such as availability of multiple tones, headphone playing capability, lower price, etc. But before you get one, make sure you like the feel of the keyboard action. This is how the keys feel when being played. It all has to do with what kind of weighted keys the keyboard uses.
If you want the feel of an acoustic piano, you will want a weighted keyboard. Many digital pianos will emulate the feel of an acoustic piano by using keyboard weighted keys. They can do this in multiple ways. Before we look at some of the different keyboard weighted types, let's get a quick understanding of how an acoustic piano gets its "feel"
An acoustic piano uses a hammer striking mechanism. When you press the keyboard keys it presses a lever. The lever causes a hammer to strike the strings. The hammer then bounces off the string. The key returns to the resting position by the weight of the hammer and levers. It's very natural feeling with no springs. It just uses the weight of the hammer and the momentum from bouncing off the string.
This type of feel is what digital pianos try to recreate. So let's look at the three types of keyboard actions.
Non-Weighted Keys
Non-weighted keys are very light feeling. They are what organs and synthesizers use. Obviously, they do not have the heavy, weighted feel that you get from an acoustic piano. Since there is little weight and no hammers using momentum from bouncing off a string, these non-weighted keyboards must use springs to bring the keys back to the resting position. The upside to this is that the keys are easier to press allowing quick movement over the keyboard. The downside is this feels nothing like an acoustic piano. Also, when keys so easily press down it is easier for your finger to barely graze a key that you had no intention of playing, making a noticeable mistake in your performance.
Weighted Keys
These keys have a weight in them to give them some substance. The weight makes them harder to press down, just like you'd expect on an acoustic piano. They come close to feeling like an acoustic piano. However, they do not have any type of hammer mechanism in them, so in that aspect they will not feel like an acoustic piano. The good news is that for a cheaper price this type of weighted keyboard comes close to approximating the feel of an acoustic piano. The bad news is that you will always be lacking that "momentum" feel on the keys of an acoustic when the momentum of the hammer bouncing off the string plays a part in bringing the keys back to a resting position.
Weighted Hammer Action Keys
These types of weighted keys come the closest to emulating the feel of an acoustic piano. Keyboards with this feature use a hammer simulating mechanism to give you the feel of a moving hammer. Some digital pianos even use actual hammers, not just a simulating mechanism. The big one that comes to mind is Kawai's AHAIV keyboard action. With these weighted keys you not only get the weight and resistance on the keys, but you also get the feel of a hammer's momentum. Both features you get on an acoustic piano keyboard.
Other Keyboard Descriptions
Before you buy a digital piano, you will come across other phrases that describe the keyboard action. The most common one will be Weighted Scaled Hammer Action. So what does the word "Scaled" mean? It means that the keys emulate the feel of an acoustic grand piano by being heavier on the lower notes and lighter on the higher notes.
On an acoustic grand piano, the lower notes are a little harder to press than the higher notes. So to emulate that feel, digital piano manufacturers will make their lower notes heavier. Other phrases you will see that describe this same thing are "Graded Hammer Action" and "Progressive Hammer Action." Also, look for the phrase "weight gradation" to indicate keys are heavier in the lower end and lighter in the high end.
Conclusion
Each manufacturer of digital pianos seeks to make their keyboard feel as close to an acoustic piano as possible. They will each do it in a different way based on their technologies and patents. Every piano player will have their opinion about which digital piano feels "the best." If you want the feel of an acoustic piano you now know to narrow your list of digital pianos to those with weighted hammer action. But the only way to find out if you like the feel of a particular digital piano is to play it.

Goo Goo Dolls "Iris" Acoustic Cover Ambient Rainstorm
I wanted to do a very relaxing cover and "Iris" is what came to mind. I layered my acoustic again, this time over a basic rain/thunderstorm ambient base I created with my piano. Hopefully this video can make your dreary, rainy days seem a bit more special. I really enjoyed doing this cover, so I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed producing it. Of course, I'd like to thank the Goo Goo Dolls for creating such an amazing song. Guitar - Yamaha FX370C Cutaway Acoustic/Electric Piano - Yamaha YPG 635 (DGX 630) PS Not sure who the model/actress is in the video. I thought she was pretty cute so I used her photo. Additionally, it's a very soft, relaxing picture to look at. Please rate and subscribe to see other videos. Happy Holidays!

Review - Yamaha YPG635 88 Key Weighted Portable Grand Piano
Combine a great sounding piano sound with attractive wood finish, then add in a host of useful and advanced features and the Yamaha YPG-635 88 key weighted portable grand piano might just be the perfect portable digital piano for you. After this review, you will know significantly more about the YPG-635 including its pros and cons and other important considerations you should be aware about.
Overview
The Yamaha YPG-635 digital piano comes with standard 64 note polyphony, a two-way speaker system (separate woofers and tweeters), a handy digital display, a multi track recorder, built-in reverb effects and digital signal processing (DSP) which adds different special effects.
If that's not enough, Yamaha also throws in a fully adjustable metronome is also available together with a total of 130 voices, 12 special effects and drums kits, and 361 XGlite voices. That's quite an impressive list of voices and features for a piano of this modest cost.
The Good
For me, the big selling point of the Yamaha YPG-635 portable grand piano is the piano action which is very similar to a real piano. Just like a real acoustic piano, the weighed hammer standard action keys enables responsiveness and a touch that feels heavier on the low parts and lighter on the high notes. Every time I play this model when I see it in a music store I'm always blown away by how fun it is to play.
Equally impressive is the pleasing quality of the grand piano sound which is all made possible by Yamaha's proprietary AWM technology which produces exquisitely realistic sounds. What makes sound quality even better is the digital signal processing which enhances the overall sound quality of the piano and really takes it to the next level.
I can't let this review go by without mentioning the aesthetic quality of this model. The neutral wood accents really make one of the most attractive portable pianos I've seen in a long while and make it the perfect addition to any room.
The Bad
Sometimes I found myself overwhelmed by the sheer number of features the YPG-635 has. As someone who just likes to sit down and play the piano it can get overwhelming. However, once you read the manual and figure out what each button does you'll have no problems.
Another possible downside for this model would be its small display which can be quite of a hindrance to those who are relying on the display for digital sheet music while playing. Sadly, there is no available option to make it bigger.
Unless you are using an external amplifier, the volume of the speakers might actually be disappointing to those who play with the YPG-635 in front of a live audience.
Final Verdict
Overall, the Yamaha YPG-635 88 key portable grand piano is a terrific buy considering its realistic grand piano sound and authentic piano action. When you take into account the incredible number of features that Yamaha has packed into this piano, nothing can come close. Somehow Yamaha has found that elusive sweet spot of sound, action, features and price. That's quite a remarkable achievement in a very competitive market.
Despite a few minor annoyances, this model scores so amazingly well on every criteria that I don't hesitate to give the flagship Yamaha YPG-635 top marks all around. So when it comes to looking for a great portable digital piano for a reasonable cost, this particular model should be the first model on your list to consider.
