Learning to play the piano opens many musical doors. 

Many play solo, but many others collaborate with other soloists or in small or large groups. And others compose or arrange or learn other instruments or direct choirs or bands or orchestras or become sound engineers or teachers. I’ve had students who were kind of waiting to quit who then found a use for it outside of lessons, such as playing piano/keyboard in their church’s youth worship band or doing a UIL solo with a band friend at School.
