Piano Rentals: No One Makes It Easier or More Affordable Than Meyer Music

When your child feels ready to move from a keyboard to a real piano, it's a moment of pride, followed shortly by panic mode. The transition to a piano shows a commitment to music, which has numerous benefits such as improved self-esteem, enhanced focus, better memory and even higher test scores. However, the process of finding the right piano can seem overwhelming. It doesn’t have to be that way—piano rentals in Kansas City through Meyer Music can make this transition smooth and hassle-free.

The Piano vs. Keyboard Debate

While keyboards are convenient and often more affordable, there's just no substitute for the experience of playing a real piano. The feel, sound and response of a piano are worlds apart from those of a keyboard. A real piano has weighted keys, which help develop proper finger strength and technique. The dynamic range of sound produced by a piano's strings, struck by hammers, provides a depth and richness that electronic keyboards cannot replicate.

Also, pianos have 88 keys compared to the standard 66 on many keyboards. This difference is key since it allows young pianists to learn the full range of music and develop their skills without limitations. Playing on a real piano helps instill the correct form and style, essential for advancing in piano mastery.

Winner: a piano.

When Renting a Piano Makes More Sense

The cost of purchasing a piano can be prohibitive, with high-end finishes and intricate craftsmanship fetching higher prices. However, there are alternatives that make piano ownership more affordable. Meyer Music has a popular piano rental program designed to support budding musicians and their families’ budget and space available in the home.
