What Is the Easiest Musical Instrument to Learn?
“Easy” can mean different things for different learners, but some instruments are more beginner-friendly than others. Here are a few that our students find most rewarding when starting out:
Piano
What makes learning piano easy? The piano is one of the best instruments for beginners. It provides a clear visual layout of notes and doesn’t require advanced coordination or technique to make music. Many students find they can play simple melodies in their first few lessons, and learning piano builds a strong foundation for understanding music theory.
Challenges: As students move beyond the beginner stage, the piano introduces new and exciting challenges — learning to coordinate both hands as they play different melodies and rhythms at the same time. It’s a rewarding step that helps develop focus, dexterity, and musical independence.
Drums
For those with a good sense of rhythm, the drums are a fun and expressive choice. Especially if you’ve got a bit of extra energy always ready to use! You can start playing along with your favourite songs quite early, and drumming helps develop timing, focus, and coordination.
Challenges: Coordinating 4 limbs can be tricky and as you progress, keeping time with a band/other musicians can provide it’s own challenges
Guitar
The guitar is one of the most popular instruments for beginners because it’s portable, versatile, and rewarding. With just a few basic chords, you can play hundreds of songs. And if you like to sing, you can perform songs very early in your guitar career! Our guitar teachers make learning simple, structured, and engaging for students of all ages.
Challenges: For smaller hands, getting around the fretboard can be tricky. It’s a good idea to do some finger strength exercises to build strength and agility.
Singing
Your voice is an instrument you already have. Singing lessons are a great way to begin your musical journey without needing to buy or tune an instrument. Our vocal coaches help you strengthen your technique, build confidence, and enjoy singing safely.
Challenges: Anyone can sing, but making sure you’re singing in a way that doesn’t cause any damage to the vocal folds can be tricky! Our trained piano teachers will ensure you learn the correct techniques!
