The Instructor
I'm Michael
Anderson.
I'm one of those people others have sometimes
referred to as gifted. Whether or not it is true, I am
talented at what I do. I never took music lessons, but on May
26, 1967, I discovered how to play my favorite songs (non-traditional
music) in less than 5 hours. Instantly,
my life changed for the better. I became a happier, creatively
confident person. Within 2 weeks, I was offered my first gig.
I'm still pushing keys for personal enjoyment, and have played
professionally ever since.
I have
relied on this natural ability to play by ear for most of my
life. Although I now read music, having that ability was not,
and is not, a requirement for playing a keyboard instrument
for personal enjoyment, or for profit! If you're interested
in knowing more about my performing experiences, take
a look at my Performance Resume.
After
more than 20 years of performing publicly, and wondering how
I am able to play so easily, I discovered the secrets
of this natural ability. In my case, it may have been
genetic, but something inside me automatically knew the basic
structure of music. After years of effort, I have been able
to put into words the very thought process that took place in
my mind when I began to play. I still rely on that thought process
today. It is easily taught, and can be learned by absolute
beginners or experienced musicians. Some people say it's like
MAGIC! In fact, 98.8% of 7000+ students in my live workshop
learned to play by ear in as little as three hours and gave
my method a name; PIANO MAGIC.
I learned
to think like music thinks. Until YOU learn to
think like music, you'll probably never play with creative
freedom! When you think like music, you will put less
effort into playing the notes and put more effort into expressing,
experiencing and creating personal sounds of Love, Joy and Happiness!
Playing in this manner feels and sounds wonderful! THIS is how
I want you to PLAY!
"It
is difficult to express how important your materials were for
me. I have always loved the piano but now I feel a sense of
freedom I didn't have before - I'm not sure I'm expressing it
correctly - but I LOVE HOW IT FEELS!!! ...You made it easy to
understand and fun!"
- Barbara Jones -
PIANO
MAGIC (whether as an online workshop or live workshop)
is theoretically correct, quick, simple, innovative and motivational.
Most of all, it's a FUN method to learn AND use!
"Your
instructions are so easy to follow. It just made so much sense...
Now I want to sit at the piano for hours and have a true desire
to play. ...It has been the greatest source of happiness in
my life this past year."
- Karen Handler -
Every
aspect of Piano Magic is my best effort to help YOU find a similar
life changing experience for yourself. This is truly GOOD STUFF!
Don't just take my word for it: Read
what my students have to say!
Life is
meant to be GOOD; with a bit of conscious effort, we can make
it GREAT...or at least...a LOT MORE FUN!
"I loved it! Your instructions were clear and it all made
sense! It was FUN!"
- Susan Johnston -
The choice
is yours...would you rather take piano lessons for years and
years, or play the songs you already know in only a few hours...just
for FUN...without having to buy expensive music? You decide.
