DecPlay Piano (Piano Made Easy) Avaliações 745

The Decplay piano course is absolutely amazing. I have never played any musical instruments but always wanted to play the piano and within a few days I could actually play a tune using both hands! The course is structured superbly starting with simple tunes and building up your skills along the way with lots of help and guidance. Highly recommended!

For the first time in 50 years I can now play music with both hands. Always found the cords a problem after having many lessons and tutors in my teens and twenties so gave up. Glad I found DecPlay and an progressing slowly but happy.

A really great way to learn piano with a huge range of tunes to learn. DecPlay simplifies learning piano into small manageable and logical steps so you can easily learn to play tunes from day one. There is also a great community for support and a friendly team.

Very easy way to learn to play the piano instead of the traditional method.

Regular contacts but not pushy.

I found the communication so positive. I'm recovering from surgery and sadly my eyesight has been severely impacted. I am disappointed that I couldn't continue due to my vision impairment. Should this improve I will contact Declan of DecPlay to sign up again. Having bought a keyboard specifically and determined to succeed, I'm disappointed in myself.

This DelPlay approach just makes a lot of sense... period... It is easy to understand and allows my eye/brain/hand coordination to operate much more rapidly than traditional musical notation using notes on the staff. As a result, the DecPlay approach makes playing piano much simpler, and progress occurs much more rapidly- days instead of years. The DecPlay system even makes music theory much more understandable. As a result, I can even write my own songs now with the knowledge that I have gained. And with access to many popular songs written with DecPlay's PianoTabz, I can play almost anything I want. Thanks for a great way to learn.

I am an 82 year old man, who have always wished I had taken piano lessons throughout my life, but have always been far too busy. Last year I took the plunge and signed into the basic Decplay course. I am somewhat tone deaf which doesn't help. Despite my love of music, I cannot sing a note or hold a tune. Even though my short term memory is on a downward trajectory I have now found that I have managed to remember around a dozen songs or so which for me is a great achievement and is very rewarding. So onwards and upwards, thanks to Declan's magical efforts to reach out to those of us with not much musical talent, yet still crave to enjoy playing piano.

What makes them a good company. They are not pushy they encourage you to play show you how easy it is and videos of people of all ages playing also the help they are willing to share with you is brilliant.

The EarPlay course is well structured, the teacher empathetic and persuasive, making me believe that I can at last play piano after many previous abortive attempts. Whilst even then the jury is still out on that, I am optimistic that with regular practice I can achieve my goal. The videos of the experiences of successful previous students are an inspiration.

After trying to learn to play my keyboard for years with limited success I find this course to be helping me move forward.

I have been a member of Decplay for three years. I have never had any piano lessons and tried to teach myself through books and courses on-line. I was about to give up until a friend recommended DecPlay. I was able to play melodies and chords within hours. The courses breaks lessons and practise down into easy to manage steps and the decplay method of using numbers instead of notes has been a complete game changer for me. I love playing songs I love and the on-line community and regular zoom calls helps me to stay motivated.

DecPlay has been a fun and easy way for me to learn the piano. I always found notes hard to learn but playing by ear was always easy for me, so learning by numbers was a game changer for me. I am playing about 10 songs already and loving it. The choice of songs in the early beginners course was limited for me as I was not familiar with many of the songs. I have just joined the Declay club, but I think for me buying the songs would be better as they have a great range of songs I would love to learn. Highly recommend learning to play by this method.

Having a difficult time using both hands
and fingering. I practice abt 1 hr per day.
Not all at one time.

Prompt response to my request to join DecPlay and facilitated me in every way possible. Very comprehensive outline of syllabus. Instructions clear and easily interpreted. Follow up impressive.

From total inexperience to a tune within a couple of weeks.
Couldn’t be happier!
Thank you

I deliberated for a while before purchasing DecPlay. It seemed a lot.of money for a strange new way to play the piano or keyboard. Then I decided to buy it. Wow was I glad I did and sorry I had delayed the decision. It's great, and the music school approaches were not there. A completely different way to play songs in a short time. You don't need to know the forces involved to knock a nail in wood.with a hammer. You just hit the nail with the hammer and it goes into the wood. On day one I knew which notes I needed to play a song and where the notes were on the piano. Using both hands at the same time. All I have to do then is start remembering what I was doing and I could play a tune without the music in front of me.
It took me about a week.
Don't procrastinate over buying or not, just buy it. I think you will be glad you did.

This is aimed at people like us. Late 70s,never did learn to play an instrument or read music .It is a way of playing a piano or keyboard without needing to read music.You could find a tabulated music book ie not actual music notes but tabulated to show a,b,c, etc and get the recommended keyboard note strip to fit to your keyboard but we tried that many years ago without success.
This system starts with right hand melody ,then progresses to left hand chords,and demonstrates how to play both hands simultaneously. It takes patience and practice to get your brain to do this but it works without the angst of scale practice.Wife and I ,both late 70s decided this is a perfect project to fill winter days when weather is bad and you can only read or watch TV so much in a day.
We started with Amazing Grace on Sept 4th and took 3 weeks,30 mins per day to play both melody and chords quite well. We then reviewed the next suggested songs but decided to try the most difficult in our opinion which was Danny Boy.We use “string piano” on the keyboard which elongates the notes and we think sounds nicer. We also use “broken chords” for same reason.All is demonstrated on the on line course.We have practiced both songs every day until last week when we were happy to concentrate on Danny Boy.We are not perfect yet but play melody and broken chord version better each day. However Declan’s advice not to try too many until you master one or two is crucial we think. Been there before,it doesn’t work.
We therefore are going with our pace at his recommendation and resisting the urge to move on before both hands can play reasonably together
No one learns to play piano in 8 weeks especially when you are retired age. If it was that easy every one would have learnt it at school.
Our aim is to be able to play reasonably well by spring 2026 and have moved on enough to play tunes we remember and liked in our 20s and 30s.which are available in Declan’s format.

It takes you step by step to playing with both hands with useful tips along the way.
