Is it too late for me to start learning piano, at 19 and with no piano/keyboard?

>>36269007
no dude
but you do need a piano, a keyboard will not do

>>36269047
why so anon? I used to have a yamaha p105 before my parents sold it off.

>>36269094
you need weighted keys

>>36269094
>yamaha p105

that's a digital piano
not a keyboard

>>36268872
Violin and piano are so distinctly different instruments that they are not comparable. Though, the portability of a violin always comes in handy.
>>36269007
It is never to late to grow, but you will need an instrument to practice on. Electronic pianos are actually recommendable over acoustic ones if you care anything about budget. You'll want a full-size (88 keys) piano with weighted keys, which should be about 600 $. I've played on a few Roland el-pianos and found them very decent.

>>36269163
you can buy keyboards with weighted keys retard

>>36269504
it would be a digital piano asshole

I own an electronic piano and know barely anything about music aside from middle C, what an octave is and that's about it
What do?

>>36269630
Youtube tutorials, according to a friend of mine.
I advice to invest in a chair with a flat seat and an adjustable height, such as a piano chair without too much stuffing. A kitchen chair proper for the height of the piano will also do.

>>36269839
Where do I start, everything seems too advanced

I am no where near as skilled, nor talented.

But please allow a poor little pianofag to contribute with a very modest mashup of improvisations.

>>36269875
I've never delved into youtube tutorials, but there seem to be a lot to choose from. You'll probably need to watch more than one intro tutorial to wrap your fingers around the keys.

>>36269915
Sounds sweet, but what is this volume? Is it a volume for ants?

>>36269956
ahh
My e-piano's volume was at max, but I forgot to boost my microphone.
I'll try to set up better next time

>>36269875
Alfred books
maybe Suzuki then.

If you could take a lesson once in a while it would be great.

>>36264032
This is really lovely anon
Please post more

Those are really incredible OP. I can't imagine how much time you've put in to get that point.

I gotta say it's a bit intimidating for a pleb like me who basically has no idea what he's doing on a technical level to post in the same thread as someone who seems to have a pretty extensive amount of formal training or knowledge.

I am a bit more comfortable with guitar tho, so here's a song I'm writing on that.

And for the performance, I love it anon.

Not bad at all, anon. You may want to personalize the piece a bit, if you are feeling comfortable.

Reading that just hurt me. Truth is a painful thing

>>36269094
p105 and p115 are good. I have a p115 and it feels really close to a real piano. Most people think of keyboard as shitty synthesizers that have no weighted keys for actually playing.
