Learn to Play the Piano Make Music
Victoria Szyrocka
UK Piano Page
Experienced and qualified piano teacher gives individual lessons in East London.
Vicky works with students of all ages and abilities. Her only requirement is PASSION for music. As long as you are committed and motivated you are a perfect student.
She is especially successful with adult beginners (it's never too late to start!!!) who always wanted to play an instrument, but never had the courage, time or other means to do so. But she also teaches children (as young as four) and prepares to the ABRSM exams. Lessons with Vicky will help you establish a good technique, learn about different styles, but above all will develop your musicality and keep you interested.

Tuning Temperaments
How many piano tuning temperaments are there?
There are countless variations, but most fall within three major categories;
1. Meantone, which generally concentrated the dissonance into a few unusable intervals (often called "wolf" intervals), so that the others could be Just. These are often called "restrictive" tunings, since there are certain intervals that are not usable. Good intervals are really good, bad ones are really bad. The Meantone era was approx. 1400-1700
2. Well-Temperament, which gives more consonance to the most often used keys, and more dissonance to the lesser used ones. Though not equal, these tunings are "non-restrictive" because all intervals can be used. The intervals range from Just to barely acceptable. Well-temperament refers to a genre, not a specific tuning. The Well-Tempered era is approx. 1700-1880.
3. Equal Temperament, which spreads the dissonance equally among all intervals.
There is no difference in consonance or dissonance between any keys, thus, there are no good ones or bad ones. Equal temperament represents a complete average. Dates of its acceptance are debated, but there is ample evidence that it was widely available by 1900 and is the predominate tuning on keyboards, today.
