I do, but I don't know know whether I'd have much advice on learning! What sort of thing are you after?

Know any decent YouTube/free intructors or tutorials?
or a half decent book to learn from?
I've spent a few weeks learning some songs I like, but know that I need a fuller education 😅

I think it depends on what you wanna be able to do. I started out just searching for tutorials for specific songs, then switched to watching music theory vids to round things out that way, with an occasional look at clips on actual technique and that. That's not helpful, is it? 😅

I've started basic music theory with Duolingo last fall. I know it's not the same as a proper teacher, but I see consistent growth in understanding and even in a way how I hear music. It's surprisingly good.

oh that's a hot lede tbf!
Had some real misses with duo but I'll have a look into that music course

Obsessive gamification and communal guilt really does it for me. Maybe it will work for you too ^_^

josh-hivemindgames.bsky.social•14 days ago

Oh fuck yeah! Nicely done :)

Usually works for me too but the language course I was doing is apparently notoriously lame :|

Ooh! I am an off and on musician (mostly off since undergrad), but you might check out Skoove and/or Piano Marvel for technique/theory. And I'm still amazed how frequently youtubing "song name" + "piano tutorial" gives amazing results for sheet music/song instruction

oooo thank you indeed!
