I am a cellist but not a very good one. I read tenor clef but not treble, and I don't know keys or how to transpose. I would like to learn to play piano, just for the purpose of playing the hymns on Sunday - we are a small church and can't afford musicians. I would know the hymns well in advance, so I wouldn't have to learn to sight-read. I am retired so have a lot of time - I would plan on about 30-60 minutes of practice a day. I have two questions. One, about how long might this take? and two, are the online teaching programs any good or do I have to have a teacher? Thanks.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

If you have a good musical background and you practice 1 hour a day everyday the same songs till you nail them then you should be able to play a couple of favourite's by heart in a about a month.
The exact number of songs depends on how gifted or how persistent/motivated you are really. Just believe God is on your side there to help you and you will grow quickly.
