Atlast, left-handed pianists (like me) can play with ease. Instead of trying to play a melody with their weak hand. disgust

Discuss!

...what a simple yet clever idea

I know, but there are benefits, such as training in using both hands for complex tasks, what if you ever have a car accident and lose your right hand and your wife? And of course, jerkin off with just one hand will bend your penis...

i'm left-handed, i do most things left-handed, i play guitar left-handed, and this still seems like a completely retarded idea. I mean, the layout of the notes is completely counterintuitive, expecially in relation to the way music is written.

maybe God gifted us left handers! A police officer once told me this: "Everyone is born left handed, we turn right handed once we committ our first sin" Plus lefties use their RIGHT side of the brain! So, in the long run we are unique and better then you commoners.

Go leftys!

Fake statistic that I actually heard once:

90% of gay people are left-handed

That seems utterly pointless...
As you progress, and songs get harder, being right handed or left handed matters less, because the melody moves, or even the chords are harder than the melody.

Actually, pianists are ususally ambidexterous.

Originally posted by Madman_V3N0M
Actually, pianists are ususally ambidexterous. Not fully, as the guy explains most piano music uses your right-hand more, and with a mirror image of the piano, you would use your left hand more. Making it easier for those who prefer their left hand. Although, learning the piano is a good way for me to strengthen my right hand, but it's the same as playing a guitar with your weak hand.

hey did you guys know there is a left handed scholarship? hhehe!

im left handed, but i dont see the point in playing a left handed piano, i mean i can play a normal piano....now playing guitar is different

left-handed piano? jeez, what a waste.

After playin 9 years on a normal one i'm DEFINITELY going to find it easier to use. Yup, sure. And all all concert halls will surely have those, too

sadwalk yeah....it really sucks. Oh well I am all alone in this cruel left handed hating world!!!! (LOL)

Anyways....Debbie get your memory checked! and I have always wanted to learn how to play the piano perhaps i will try with the left handed one if i only had the MONEY! lol.

Hi everyone,
If you'd like to learn playing the piano on the Left-Hand piano, check out my free tutorials at PIANOPOD dot com

While, there, also visit my Piano Lounge to hear lots of my free piano solos.

I'm left-handed and I think it would just be completely counter-intuitive to the way music is notated.

I'm right handed, but I agree

however, this has more to do with how your brain maps the spatial relation between progressive notes.

There probably are people out there for whom a left handed piano makes way more sense.

I think it could work if music was read right to left, like hebrew or arabic.

that is a personal representation to you, though

Like, I don't personally disagree, but I've read about synesthesic patients who map time in the shape of an L or other such things (most research looks at abnormalities in colour perception, but synesthesia is way bigger than that).

I haven't read anything specifically about notes and musical scales, but it stands to reason that the spatial representation of a scale, the mapping of written notes to muscle action, and the representation of sound in some people could make a lefty piano more effective.

As a lefty I have a tendency to reverse what people do with their hands to suit me. Seeing someone play with their right hand makes me wanna play with the left. I'm really fast and good with my left than the right, and when I use the keyboard mirror, I can play a lot easier.

I still play the "right" way though, so I can play on any piano.

Erm, often the left-handed parts of piano pieces can be as complicated as the right-handed parts.

Which is why you need to use them both. It's no hindrance to have a complicated left hand passage... it's just called practice.

I tend to mirror a lot of things too. I mirror combos in martial arts, play guitar left-handed and typically have my mouse pad set up with the buttons reversed since i typically mouse with my left. But I get confused visually which is why I would think it would be easier to play a lefty piano with mirrored music. An example is when playing a Wii, I usually adopt a left-handed position with the wii-mote in my left and the nunchuck in my right unless the game is first person such as metroid prime 3 wherein I tend to mirror whatever's onscreen because it seems more natural. Yet another reason i'm pissed at the wii version of twilight princess.

If its alright to mirror a game, why not mirror every game and have the option of which hand to play at the beginning?

I'm ambidextrous with the mouse, I was taught to use it right handed, and at one point was better with the right than the left, but realised lefty was so much easier. I remember it hurting using when I started with the right hand.

I would support that option but I would still switch because I'm one of those losers who enjoys some sense of continuity regarding the handedness of fictional characters. One of the few things I found a wee bit irritating about the otherwise nearly flawless watchmen movie, btw (Rorschach and Moloch are explicitly lefties in the book).
