Five Things You Know If You're a Pianist
Do you play the piano? Then you definitely know these 5 things…..
1. Hand Cramp
No one gets hand cramp quite like a pianist, especially if you're spending a lot of time practising. Performing hand stretches before you play, playing regularly, and ensuring you play in the correct posture are great ways to avoid piano playing injuries.
2. Piano Falling Out of Tune
For other instrumentalists their instrument going out of tune means spending a bit of time fiddling around with it to get it back into tune. For you it usually means obtaining the services of a professional piano tuner who will spend a few hours tuning your piano whilst you wait patiently to play. Musiq Group has a team of over 25 nationwide piano technicians that look after the hundreds of pianos we lease and hire. Any help we can provide with the tuning and servicing of your piano then please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
3. Moving Your Piano
The piano is not the most travel friendly instrument. A flautist can pop their flute in their bag, a cellist can even carry their cello on their back - it's impossible to move a piano without the services of a highy skilled piano transport team!
4. Price
There's no denying that pianos are very expensive, costing thousands to tens of thousands! Of course there is always the option to take advantage of our unique Piano Home Hire scheme which allows access to a very expensive piano for a low monthly hire fee. Check out our Home Hire Piano options.
5. You're Always Expected to Play
Wherever you go if there happens to be a piano in the corner you will be expected to play that piano!
