But is it possible to master a musical instrument by teaching yourself?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting your hands on a musical instrument, whether it\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/top-10-tips-to-teach-yourself-guitar-in-2021\/\">a guitar<\/a> or bagpipes, is only the first step; the tricky part is learning how to play the thing. Is there a vital need to take lessons to learn how to play a musical instrument?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally speaking, yes, it is definitely possible for someone to teach themselves an instrument and be able to play it well. That doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s easy. However <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/how-old-is-too-old-to-start-learning-a-musical-instrument\/\">learning a musical instrument <\/a>lifts your mood and improves your <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/10-self-care-tips-for-musicians-and-producers\/\">mental health<\/a>, boosting self-esteem, with benefits depending on the instrument like improving your breath control and multi-tasking skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everybody learns in different ways, and you never know until you try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Why would you want to learn a musical instrument on your own? It sounds hard<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Not everybody wants a teacher bossing them around and dictating what direction their learning path will take. Plenty of people, especially as an adult, find they flourish best when not being judged by someone else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teaching yourself a musical instrument also means you save <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/how-can-a-music-producer-make-money\/\">money<\/a> on music lessons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps you\u2019re just after a new project, or looking to challenge yourself. You never know what natural talent might emerge once you pick up an instrument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Serious about teaching yourself music? Time to get organised <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Research is the first step to teaching yourself a musical instrument. Start by listening to famous music featuring your chosen <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/hell-scary-instrument-straight-nightmares\/\">instrument<\/a>, getting familiar with the sound it produces and different musical genres associated with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the teaching itself, you know your own learning process better than most. Say you\u2019ve been handed down <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/ever-wondered-why-violins-have-f-shaped-holes\/\">a violin<\/a> \u2013 are you content with mastering a few well-known folk songs, or would you rather complete a course to learn techniques that will give you a grounding to play a whole range of music? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a think about what you want to get out of the process and setting goals will help to streamline your learning, saving you time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Learning the Trombone in 1 Month - Week 1!\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-6yHOXvfd18?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are YouTube tutorials out there for even the most obscure of instruments, and you can\u2019t go wrong with teaching yourself from an educational music book. A vital step of <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/mastering-your-instrument-101\/\">learning an instrument<\/a> on your own is establishing a routine right from the beginning of practising every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Is learning an instrument worth it?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are unique challenges to teaching yourself an instrument. Some instruments are arguably <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/whats-the-easiest-musical-instrument-to-learn-how-to-play\/\">easier to learn than others<\/a> \u2013 if you\u2019ve zero knowledge of music or <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/glossary-of-music-terms-and-what-they-mean\/\">music theory,<\/a> an easier instrument like the piano might be a better starting point than something like the cello. Saying that, plenty of determined learners crave a harder challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teaching yourself an instrument does pose the danger of learning bad habits, which a beady-eyed tutor would normally spot before they become ingrained \u2013 things like breathing techniques and hand positioning. There\u2019s also nothing like being mentored by a <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/interview-with-nubiyan-twist-teaching-music-in-lockdown\/\">talented music teacher <\/a>with musical life experience to draw from, eager to introduce you to their own unique way of playing an instrument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider whether you need the structure of <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/top-tips-for-online-music-lessons-in-lockdown\/\">music lessons<\/a> to motivate you to keep learning. Some people find they need the motivation of being monitored week to week, craving that competitive feeling that nudges them to keep practising and not let their teacher down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find you\u2019re struggling to motivate yourself, consider documenting your progress on <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/10-top-tips-for-musicians-using-social-media\/\">social media<\/a>, perhaps setting yourself a challenge to give yourself accountability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/best-daw-for-classical-musicians.jpg\" alt=\"Orchestral musician.\" class=\"wp-image-90530 lazyload\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The sense of pride and achievement that comes from teaching yourself a musical instrument is hard to beat. You know you got there by your own hard work, and you\u2019re in total control of your own destiny. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everybody <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/roli-return-with-lumi-a-rainbow-keyboard-that-makes-learning-bright-and-fun\/\">learns in different ways,<\/a> and you can always take a few lessons later on if you\u2019re struggling learning advanced techniques by yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With all the online resources available, as long as you\u2019re in possession of an instrument there\u2019s absolutely nothing to stop you teaching yourself how to play it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/routenote.com\">And if you end up recording yourself playing your new instrument, why not put your song on streaming services so everyone can hear the progress you&#8217;ve made?
