What Is The Easiest Instrument To Learn?
If you want to start learning an instrument, but aren’t sure which one to pick up, this post should help! Whether you are an adult or child, we’re here to highlight some of the easiest musical instruments to master.
Easiest Instruments To Play
Based on decades of research, performing and feedback, these three instruments are generally considered the easiest to learn:
- Ukulele
- Piano
- Drums
Ukulele
This is one of the most popular instruments to start playing for a beginner, especially if the ultimate goal is to end up mastering the guitar. For one, the frets are much closer together than on the guitar, making it much faster to learn and play at a high level. It’s also one of the most inexpensive instruments one can purchase today. Also, if you live in an apartment or small area, this instrument will not take up much room at all. It is the ideal instrument for someone just starting out in the world of music.
There are many resources available to learn the ukulele, such as online tutorials, but nothing will do the trick quite like an in-person music instructor. A professional will show you how to move your fingers up and down the instrument, helping you to master the ukulele in no time!

Piano
You may be wondering why piano makes the list of easiest instruments to play, since it seems like such a difficult piece to play. Truth is, the piano does take a long time to master, but once you have it down you can enjoy this instrument for a lifetime, and it provides the basic skills needed to learn any other instrument.
If the piano looks a bit intimidating, opt for a keyboard instead. Most keyboards have the exact look and feel of pianos, but they are cheaper and much smaller, which makes them easier to learn.
Piano Lessons For Beginners
There are numerous benefits when it comes to taking piano lessons, for all ages. In addition to helping hand-eye coordination, piano lessons have also been proven to improve reading comprehension. Engage your mind by reading and playing enjoyable music at the same time. This fun instrument will require intense concentration and discipline, but the reward is worth all the work. Piano lessons have also been shown to calm individuals by reducing anxiety and stress. Amazing Mobile Music Instruction also offers piano lessons!
According to Thumbtack, piano lessons typically cost between $50-$60 per hour, bringing the national average to $55 per lesson.
- Lowest cost: $40.
- Average cost: $50.
- Highest cost: $60.
Drums
This will apply to percussion instruments of all kinds. These are the best instruments to learn if you are little intimidated to pick up a tuned piece. Percussion instruments have an organic feel to them. With percussion, it is all about timing since you cannot play any wrong notes. Timing is crucial in the world of music, though, so this a basic skill that needs to be developed.
Drums will also teach you coordination, in addition to timing. Start small with maybe only a snare drum and kick bass. Eventually, beginners can work their way up to a smaller drum kit before playing a larger one after the instrument has been mastered.

PIANO LESSONS REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS
Ben is an amazing music instructor. I am a music producer and I have taken piano lessons from him for over 5 years. Highly recommended as he is very patient and easy to work with.
"I think it was a great first lesson for my 8 year old. He has been taking private lessons for the past one year but none of the instructors taught him the right technique to hold the pick, hold the guitar and placement of right and left hand. The instructor (Benjamin) seemed knowledgeable and had the right approach to teach a child. Definitely plan to continue taking these lessons and definitely recommend to anyone who is interested."
"Ben is an amazing piano teacher. He is energetic, outgoing and very patient. My daughter has really enjoyed her lessons over the last few months. He has kept my daughter excited about learning by his upbeat personality, but has also made sure she focused on the essentials of piano playing. Ben is very knowledgeable and as a parent, it is very comforting to deal with such a professional."
"With Ben's encouraging, patient and enthusiastic style of teaching I now know that I can learn to play guitar. As an older student I wasn't sure if I should endeavor such a challenge. Before I realized, I was learning, playing and understanding music."
"My son has only had his first lesson so far but the instructor was very good with him. He was so interested after the lesson that he continued to practice for another 20 min after the lesson. He is now very excited to learn more. Thank you!"
"Ben is a good guitar teacher. I have learned many things from him. He lets you take your time when you are trying to learn something and he will never rush you. I would suggest having Ben as your guitar teacher."
"I had my first lesson and am very excited and inspired by Benjamins enthusiasm and teaching style. He makes it a lot of fun! I am hoping his style will inspirer my daughter to take lessons."
"Ben was prompt and very friendly. The boys enjoyed the lessons and will continue on with Ben. He was great at being flexible to fit us into his schedule when it worked for us."
"Ben is very patient and knowledgeable. My son was very happy about learning to play a song after his 1st lesson. He is eager to practice and seems to really enjoy it."
"Benjamin was patient, friendly, and professional. He worked well with my kids and we are looking forward to next weeks session."
"Ben has so much passion and an amazing gift for sharing it with young ones -- my 6 year old son LOVED his first lesson!!!"
"Ben is an excellent and very supportive instructor."
"Ben is a great teacher. He keeps lessons interesting and fun!"
"Ben makes lessons fun and I also learn a lot!"
"Ben has been teaching guitar to my son for the past few months and I must say that, it has been great so far. Ben teaches various techniques which I see no other previous guitar instructor has stressed upon earlier and they are must for guitarist in order to develop good habits from the start. He makes sure in every class that my son is playing the guitar with correct form and technique. He's good with kids and makes sure they are comfortable and understanding the instructions. I always tell my son to learn as much as possible from Ben, he's a good teacher and willing to share his knowledge. Recently started piano classes as well for my daughter and so far going great. She's liking them. Definitely recommend if any one wants to learn music from Ben. At least give him a try."
"I had been meaning to get piano lessons for my oldest for a while and when I found Ben's ad on Yelp I sent him a message. He responded quickly and was able to fit us in at a time which worked perfectly for the both of us. He is very patient with my daughter and she has shown so much improvement over such a short amount of time. I can't believe how quickly she is picking things up and enjoying playing. She constantly makes up new songs throughout the day, adding to them and seems genuinely interested in continuing. He even likes to help her create new music to keep her interested. A much better experience than I had when I was younger. I am so glad we found Ben."
