Learning to play a musical instrument teaches patience, discipline, and collaboration

Karen ContrinoBy Karen Contrino16/12/20243 Mins Read

Learning to play a musical instrument is an outlet for self-expressions and connecting with other musicians. It teaches patience, discipline, and collaboration, but most importantly, it is an exciting and rewarding experience. Starting out in music is thrilling, but for beginners, the number of musical instruments to choose from can feel overwhelming. However, there are plenty of instruments designed with beginners in mind and there is something for everyone.

“It’s never too late to start learning something new. Playing a musical instrument is a fun way to learn a new skill” says Simon Bennett, Managing Director of musicGuard.

Wanting to learn to play a musical instrument can be overwhelming at first. Leading music insurer musicGuard discusses most beginner-friendly options to help individuals start their musical journey with confidence.

Keyboards and pianos

Keyboards and pianos feature black and white keys. While they span three or four octaves from A to G, keyboards offer simplicity in music creation by pressing keys in sequence. Beginner keyboards often have inscribed notes and letters next to musical notations for easy learning. However, their large size makes pianos impractical for many spaces, and keyboards, while offering space-saving alternatives, can be bulky for transportation.

Woodwind instruments

Woodwind instruments are popular because they are affordable, portable, and easy to learn. They’re played by controlling airflow through holes in the instrument’s tube, powered by the player’s breath. Learning wind instruments involves reading music and coordinating finger movements to control airflow for different notes, improving hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. Woodwind instruments vary in difficulty, with recorders being simpler and oboes more challenging.

Stringed instruments

From guitars to violins and everything in between, stringed instruments are intricate and finely crafted. Often handmade, these instruments are delicate, with each possessing a subtly distinct tone. This is why certain violins, for instance, can cost millions of pounds.

Meanwhile, electric guitars are more durable and can withstand rough handling by rockers, but they still require precise tuning for optimal sound quality. Learning to play stringed instruments differs depending on the instrument, but most require coordination, which can be challenging.

Percussion instruments

Percussion instruments come in various forms, from basic stick tapping to sophisticated drum sets, including compact electronic drums with powerful sound. For many, drums are the most enjoyable, uplifting and engaging musical instrument. However, mastering drums involves more than just hitting sticks; it requires coordination and intense concentration.

“At musicGuard, we support all musicians, from complete beginners to seasoned professionals” adds Bennett.
