5 STEPS THAT MAKES YOU FAMOUS AS A PIANIST


 Hello, welcome to our piano blog, today we will be discussing five steps that makes you famous as a pianist. After all the researches I have done I found out there are many pianist  that are very good in playing the piano but they all have similar issues which is creating awareness (been famous). Few of them are well known while most of them are still in the dark .I spoke to one of them and he said:
 “how can I be famous when there are better pianists who plays better than I do”.
  I made him understood that it’s not all about being famous but what the world needs is what you have to offer (creativity), once this is accepted then you get the fame you desire.
Here is the chart chain process to be famous.


PERSON Step 1  → PERSON PRODUCT Step 2  →  PRODUCT  ACCEPTED  Step 3 →    PAID PRODUCT  Step 4






I want you to answer this few questions below:

  Do you have style of creativity to offer to the world?

    If your audiences are up to 10,000, do you know how to manage your audiences, to keep them wanting more of you?

          Remember as a pianist your product is your style and creativity of playing the piano.




For instance let take the Nike Company for instance, when you see the symbol of Nike () you can easily identify its product.
         As pianist what do you have that people can easily identify your product? It could be that you can place different chords in a simple song or you can run different scales very fast and it could even be that you make nice song arrangement.

NOTE:  it could be anything you know how to do best.


        For instance when you hear of Cory Henry, the first thing that comes to your mind in describing him, might be the way he plays his chords and the speed he applies when playing his scales. Now that you know his style, i think you should have something in mind about yourself.

 5 STEPS THAT MAKES YOU FAMOUS AS A PIANIST

1.      STOP TRANSPOSE ( be flexible on all keys)

As a pianist that wants to mentor people, the first step you should make on the piano is  playing on all the 12 keys perfectly. I found out that most pianists are not good on the 12keys in the piano which is very bad. If you think that playing all the magic on a key is what makes you a pianist, you are totally wrong. You've not started at all. You need to go back and perfect all the keys.

   Playing on all the 12keys gives you the confidence and boldness to play and speak out anywhere at anytime. Once you can play a song on all the keys people around will notice you and keep talking about you even the top and the young ones around you will talk of you anytime and anywhere. Let put a driver as an example; when you enter a bus and you find out that the driver only knows how to start the bus and control the steering  but doesn’t know how to control the gear and the brake, I know the way you would leave the bus won’t be the way you entered the bus. The same is applied to the piano, you won’t get enough audience even if you are a master on one key, so practice all the keys daily and you will become excellent on all keys. Like the saying goes practices make perfect.

2.      LISTEN TO SONGS AND SCORE AS MANY AS YOU CAN

 
One of the things I find so interesting in scoring songs is that, you can learn different techniques from different pianist which can lead to your own creativity. When you score different songs well, your playing will be worth listening to and will sound professional to the hearers. What helps a good pianist improve better is the time he spends on materials either in written words or video. When you can play different songs you get more people attracted to you from your local community. And playing those songs you score on all keys changes your mindset. Automatically you attract more audience from your performance.

You can search for different pianist online either with Google or any search engine and look for any pianist you look forward to be like or sound better. I can guarantee you it helps a lot. Cory Henry posted on his wall about his music life, he said that he took time to study more from his mentor, so you can also develop the same attitude towards your piano lifestyle.
What you have to do is to get their materials free online or you can buy them e.g. you can buy good materials by Kelvin Coley on www.prettysimplemusic.com.

4.      MAKE YOUR OWN ARRANGEMENT

   Making your own arrangement is a simple task. All you have to do is to combine what you know how to play in a limited time that someone can listen and be challenged to try it what they heard you played. That is your creativity at this juncture what you played will be what will make you famous.

  All you need to do is to get your style of playing video, record it and share with people. One of the best way you can share your video is on social media e.g Instagram, Facebook, Youtube, Twitter e .t .c. where you can even create a page where people can visit. For instance, I created a facebook page for this blog so as to inform all my audience when there is a new post.  Click this link to join our page www.facebook.com/pianistworld




5.      EXPLORE

 

 Of course you know that you can’t stay in a particular  place to advertise your product. So you need to move from one place to another in other to attract more audience across your community. At this juncture you need to go for shows, programs, competitions, concerts e .t .c you can start by creating a band and give yourselves a unique name that is not known. You can make nice arrangement with your band and show it by performing it anywhere you go, it a platform to get started. 



At least by now you can get up to 10,000 fans across the world if you follow this steps.
