Why Take Piano Lessons?
Did you ever notice how most people who start off at a young age taking piano lessons rarely continue past high school? Then, when these people grow into adults many of them will eventually regret their decision to quit. So much so that, many will actually seek out a new piano teacher and start all over again.
Why do most people quit? I don’t think it’s because they’re not motivated or they don’t like music. I believe it’s because they don’t realize why they’re taking piano lessons in the first place. Sure they can tell you that music is important and they probably should be trying harder but the fact is most simply cannot tell you the real reason for learning in the first place.
Do you want to know why? Ok, here it is. I truly believe that music is engrained into our subconscious and most of us truly want a way to express ourselves in ways that words cannot. Not only has music been around since the dawn of time, way longer than most modern forms of entertainment but, music is an integral part of our humanity.

Downloading, Installation, and Compatibility
Downloading the Software: The programs below can be obtained just by clicking on the underlined title. In many cases of IBM files, this will link you directly to the file indicated in the File Archive of Walnut Creek CD-ROM or to the Simtel archive. If your browser generates a message when you click saying that you haven’t defined a helper application to handle the ZIP file type, choose the option Save to Disk . If you get a message “Anonymous user access denied”, it simply means the server is busy; try again later. Because programs are constantly upgraded and the archives restructured frequently, we cannot guarantee that even our monthly checks of all the links on the site will keep these links current at all times. If you get a “link not found” or similar error, chances are good that you can find the current version of the program by simply deleting the file name at the end of the full URL and connecting to that URL. You should be able to identify the correct file name from the directory listing.
Installing the Software: Note that the programs in the ZIP format are compressed archives that must be decompressed and installed. To unzip ZIP archives in Windows or Windows 95, you should get WinZIP or WinZIP for Windows 95. Programs that, when downloaded, have an EXE extension are also compressed but do not require a separate decompression program. In that case, just run the file and it will decompress itself. Essentially all the Windows programs will decompress into a series of files, one of which will be either SETUP.EXE or INSTALL.EXE or a similarly named file. Run that file to install the program in Windows. Some of the more modern downloadable software with an EXE extension will decompress and install itself automatically in any of the various Windows versions.
