Billy Joel at MSG

Piano man Billy Joel blew the world away last year when he announced that he will play Madison Square Garden every month until he dies. He shattered expectations when he sold out the first 11 dates and can possibly tie his own record of twelve consecutive sold out MSG shows if he sells out a December 18 date.

Billy Joel rose to fame in 1973 with his hit song Piano Man. If you are or would like to be a piano man like Billy Joel, Rockaway Music is a piano dealer in NJ that has a wide selection of both new and used pianos to choose from. We carry all of the top name brands, and our expert staff has over 70 years of combined experience to help you to find the right piano that you are looking for.

The Benefits of Music Education

   Music education is very beneficial to children, especially at an early age. Musical training has been shown to improve the development of the areas of the brain involved with language and reasoning. Music develops the left and right brain equally, taking equal amounts of creativity and logical analysis. Reading music is a left-brain skill, while ear training is a greatly right-brain trait. When a child learns music early on, it is easier for them to develop and and nurture both abilities into a well-rounded musician.

    Piano lessons in Morris County NJ help children in further their education. Children are able to think creatively and to solve problems by producing various solutions, and rejecting assumptions. The arts do not have only one right answer. It also nurtures a child's mean of self-expression. After learning the building blocks of music, the challenge then lies with the child to make it meaningful and reach for a higher development.

   Music education also develops skills that will be necessary later in the workplace. The main focus of music education is to do, rather than observe. Employers often look for multi-dimensional workers with the balance of left and right brain. The performance aspect of piano lessons also teaches children to take risks and conquer fears. Anxiety is something they are taught is normal and something that will occur naturally in life. Dealing with anxiety early on will lessen the impact it may have on a child's life later on.

   Rockaway Music understands the impact that music education can have on a child's life. We offer one-on-one piano lessons with top piano instructors for children, and adults. No matter what kind of student we instruct, our main goal is to ensure the child and parents' goals are met. That is why we provide quality piano lessons in a comfortable and professional atmosphere.

Yamaha Hybrid Pianos in NJ

For years Yamaha has offered quality pianos to perspicacious musicians. In the past few years they have developed a technology that offers traditional, acoustic, piano players a grand piano sound and feel for a fraction of the investment. It's not a digital piano, the cheap plastic ones loaded with sounds you never want or need. Yamaha's hybrid pianos offer an incredible playing experience for all of your senses. These are real pianos with a luscious black lacquered finish, three pedals and real wooden keys that feel like you're hitting a taught metal string.
The strings are replaced with sensors that the hammers hit. Each sound the piano emits has been recorded and sampled from each string of Yamaha's top-end grand piano. The sound is reproduced through high end speakers inside the body of the piano. Yamaha's development so closely reproduced the feeling of playing a grand piano that the keys subtly vibrate when struck hard. The samples that they have recorded, and the speakers are so exceptional that the differences are inaudible.
Yamaha's line of hybrid pianos offers some staggering advantages to traditional grand pianos. There is never a need to tune the hybrid pianos, which depending on the piano itself, can be very costly. The hybrids also offer volume control, making them great for smaller homes and apartments. And if you prefer to not even let your neighbors know your next masterpiece, there is a headphone jack.
You can find Yamaha hybrid pianos in NJ at Rockaway Music. Rockaway Music is a licensed Yamaha dealer and carries a complete line of Yamaha hybrid pianos in NJ.

Since McCartney started performing solo he has been utilizing Yamaha pianos on stage and in the studio. Along with McCartney many other famous artists take their seats behind a Yamaha Piano, artists that include Elton John, James Blunt, Chick Corea, Sheryl Crow, Alicia Keys and Barry Manilow, just to name a few.
