Becoming a multi-instrumentalist
I am a vocalist, and am currently getting into music production in preparation for an upcoming album. Despite always being so interested in music and having 8 consecutive years of classical voice training I’ve never picked up an instrument. I’m looking to learn piano, guitar, and drums. I have very basic guitar knowledge (some chord shapes and knowledge on strings), I know the notes on a piano and I know nothing about drumming. My buddy is a composition major and he gave me his theory I textbook which I’ve also been reading to help this process. What would be the best way to tackle this if I’m setting aside around 3 hours a week to rehearsing (my schedule is really busy). Initially I was thinking about doing one instrument each week for example
Week 1: drums
Week 2: guitar
Week 3: piano
And repeat the cycle. I was told to consider trying to do an hour a week to each instrument but then I was also told that would slow me down and I should try to dedicate myself to just learning one instrument at a time before moving to the next. If that’s the route I should take I’d there an order I should learn?
Sorry for the long winded post but I would appreciate any all feedback, thank you!
