Musiah Review: "Impossible Became Possible With Patience and Practice"
Can a lifelong guitar player finally master the "impossible" challenges of the piano in retirement? Steve S., a senior student from the United States, had the musical knowledge but lacked the piano experience. After decades of waiting, he decided to trust Musiah's AI piano lessons app to guide him. Now a graduate of the program, Steve shares how the techniques he learned gave him the confidence to play independently. Read his bittersweet "final lesson" review.
"Completed Course Today… Still Would Rate Musiah 5 stars."
I passed the final performance challenge today. Bittersweet actually. I will miss having Brendan in my ear 5-7 days a week and felt it was important to write a review based on the experience.
This is my second review, the first one I wrote early on in the process. Still would rate Musiah 5 stars.
As a "senior" adult with decades of experience playing a guitar I looked at many different programs and options for learning piano as an adult to fulfill a life long desire to learn the piano.
I was starting with music knowledge but no piano experience.
The Hook: "Nowhere to Hide"
I have to admit the instant feedback in Musiah had me hooked at the first trial.
Nowhere to hide. If you are off on the note, the timing or the duration you will know it.
Trusting the Process and the Pace
The thing that kept me at it was developing a sense of trust in Brendan's judgement in the "pace" of development, and because of that a confidence that I would succeed.
The pieces were interesting and fun but sometimes seemed impossible... at first. Impossible became possible with patience and practice.
Life After Musiah: Playing Independently
Near the end of the course when I started playing more outside of Musiah, I used the same philosophy and techniques learned in the course – confidently, successfully and with a great deal of personal satisfaction.
Thank you! It was a great beginning to an ongoing journey!
