As someone who plays both at a really high level (bachelor of music Piano performance and 20 years of playing the guitar) I can say that at the highest level all instruments are incredibly difficult and time consuming. The guitar has a pain barrier at the start, so the piano is more accessible to start. When it comes to real playing, there is no difference in difficulty level.

[@flynnoflenniken7402]

That's about what I figured. I only play piano as an amateur hobbyist, but I would think there's pretty much an unlimited skill ceiling for about any instrument. The finger blisters from the guitar strings sounds kinda brutal though.

[@DF-de8ib]

Can you play a slide or bend on a piano on different frets on different speeds with accuracy? Nope. Piano is difficult to start but easy to be a master at a certain level. Playing guitar is easy to learn (veeeeeerrry easy) but difficult to master. It's just super multi dimensional in terms of playing and applying it to genres of music.

[@derekcarter2645]

​@@DF-de8ib piano requires you to know much much more about theory to play it proficiently. There is more technical skill perhaps, but music theory is an integral part of making piano easier whether it be playing chords, scales, or reading music. Whereas there is much more mechanical skill required for high level guitar. But there's no ceiling for proficiency

[@eliseleonard3477]

This was GREAT! As an intermediate guitarist I think you missed one of the biggest ones- for any given note there is only one spot on the piano to play it, and it’s very intuitive that moving left is lower and right is higher. On the guitar there are a lot of places to find the same note (except the lowest ones) or even an identical chord, and you have to pick your position depending on sound and what comes before and after in the music. Also.. harmonics

[@steves.5342]

Had I not seen your comment I would have pointed out the same thing, and it's an important point. Playing both, I have, for that very reason, always considered the guitar more difficult. I can hear a piano piece (nothing overly complicated, I'm no expert) and figure out how to play it. With guitar I can hear it, but hearing it won't tell you where the note is being played. You generally have to go thru it over and over finding all the transitions to determine where to play a given note.

[@Lucifri]

@@steves.5342 I think it brings a certain "flexibility" as well: you can choose where you'll play a note in a way that makes playing the whole piece more comfortable/easy. Does it make sense?

[@steves.5342]

@@Lucifri Of course it provides flexibility, but there are also more ways to play; and being skilled at one way of playing guitar, say fingerstyle, means nothing when it comes to flatpicking. That's not the point though. The point is a piano scale is laid out one way and that's it. I can play the same scale in multiple places on a guitar neck. I also play some mandolin, xiao flute, tin whistle, and have never found an instrument that is 'easy' to play. They all have their own challenges. What is easier to play is going to vary from person to person.

Being a bad guitar player myself, I find it's not difficult to be a low skill guitarist and be able to play things at a very basic level and most people would say it sounds fine. If I did the same on the piano, it would not impress at all. Piano takes more skill to get to playing anything that sounds halfway decent, BUT playing the guitar really well is insanely difficult. You can play guitar badly and still play enough to sing a pop song cover with your guitar, but getting to the level of a really great rock/classical/jazz guitarist is a massive amount of work.

[@AdaraBalabusta]

To say nothing of the callouses involved. 😮

[@zahifar3936]

Very true. That’s why most young people choose guitar. They can entertain a small group with basic skill. Not doable with a piano. Let alone it’s very hard to take along as was proven in the video.

[@Rockstar-bq5fm]

Yeah, I started playing when I was 13 and within the first four months I could strum and sing loads of songs which was a great party trick. If you’re capable of blasting out something like American Pie or Rhinestone Cowboy at a party and are able to somewhat hold a tune then people are pretty easily impressed. But getting “properly good” is so difficult and takes real effort and time. I flat out tell anyone who says I can play that I can strum a few chords and can half hold a tune. I love playing my guitar but I’m not anywhere close enough to what I’d want to be to say I can really play.

[@pingaspearce9403]

Opposite for me learning the piano was a lot easier and i could find the notes much more easily than having to press down on the strings hard

[@lindawolffkashmir2768]

Yes, with a guitar, if you know the chords, you can easily play a rhythm and sing along. On piano, if you hit one key wrong, it stands out. The guitar chords can be more flexible and more forgiving. Now, of course if you are playing advanced guitar pieces, single notes matter more, and then errors show up. The hardest thing I’ve found on guitar can be reaching some chord positions. F is notorious for this, beginners tend to struggle with the positioning. You may also come across some of this when you begin learning bar chords. Thankfully, the more you keep at it, the stronger your muscle memory becomes.

I started learning piano as a music student and years after I did the jump into guitar. Mastering any instrument is equally hard and the limit is always the amount of work you put into it, never the instrument you chose. Said that, guitar is a much more expressive instrument than piano because your fingers, your pick, your nails... have much more control over the sound and you can achieve the same note in several different ways (slides, pitch armonics, hammers, pulls, tappings, picking, finger picking...). And that adds a whole set of serious problems into the equation. In fact, we are so used to these problems, that we unconciously "forgive" all these small mistakes in the interpretation and we accept them as the characteristic sound of a guitar.

[@reinhardmuller9137]

[@hinsland]

why don't compare piano, guitar with a violin? Violin can play two notes together but is usually monophonic, far from a homophony instrument like guitar or piano. But violin is considered a very difficult instrument because the tone control is super hard. The fault tolerance on a violin is so little, while guitar is second, piano is third. But that doesn't mean the the violin is more difficult among three. It is because the piano score is the most complex (max. 10 notes simultaneously), guitar is second(max. 6 notes simultaneously), violin is third(max. 2 notes simultaneously). Piano can play the orchestral pieces solo. Some guitarists also tried orchestral pieces in one guitar, like the legendary Yamashita which is very rare. Yes guitar can do that. So, which is more hard to play? There is no answer. The general consensus is that the guitar looks casual, strum and sing. Guitar seems easy to play with... So I know, the gap between the real difficulty to the impression of the guitar is the largest.

I played guitar for almost 15 years and piano for almost 10. Here's my take. I think that the early stages of guitar are incredibly difficult, and that piano is much more welcoming to beginners. Once you become an intermidate to advanced guitarist, there isn't too much difficulty, much of guitars difficult at this stage is just building dexterity through repetition. Almost all high level techniques are ones you can do very slowly and gradually increase your speed by practice. The intermediate and advanced piano pieces far surpass the dexterity required by guitar. The volume of notes and speed needed for many advanced pieces I think makes piano a more difficult instrument to accel at. Guitar can also largely be learned and played with minimal music theory or sheet music reading. Piano demands much more understanding of theory and reading sheet music.

[@LLF1234]

You clearly have never seen Van Halen or James Hetfield to start with. To be an "okay" guitarrist, what you said might be true, but to become a real great player it's much more difficult than "it sounds like that guy". Pianists can play perfectly old-schoolers, but its extremely rare to find great guitarists that can play what the best play and sound like them. If we're talking about classical guitar, Paco de Lucía is one great example, no one to date can sound like him nor match him. Spanish and Portuguese classical guitars are still unmatched to this day. On the other hand, if Beethoven was alive today, he would be playing a guitar (probably electric) and would be playing heavy metal. He was a pianist because they didn't have guitars back then. On the other hand he was a fan of the at-the-time guitar instrument that existed (different from current-day classical guitars). Guitars are at a much complex and higher level in every way than pianos (except for tuning and transporting them). Piano is great just to quickly prototype a song, but not for playing as they sound boring. Guitars sounds much vibrant and nicer with several layers of complexity to them.

I don’t agree. I play both instruments too, and especially the volume thing you mentioned+ string muting, legato and all those fine things are way harder to master on a high level on the guitar. It is not easy to produce good sounding notes out of this instrument and it has a lot of parameters that influence the tone. Plus you can spend a lifetime to master all the fretboard including arpeggios modes etc. on the guitar. There are literally endless playing techniques in every genre that are going far beyond tapping or legato. If you are good at classical music it doesn’t mean you are good at playing a blues solo or a heavy metal piece with a plectrum. There is no fucking roof hahaha it’s literally endless

[@liambeers8458]

Advanced classical guitar in my opinion is much harder than advanced piano (electric is far easier however)

[@krugu1]

@@liambeers8458 I agree but electrical can also be really challenging, always depends on the genre etc

[@azael5033]

​@@LLF1234Classical piano easier than guitar? It's obvious that you don't know who Lizst or Chopin is, and the piano is a more complete instrument, capable of providing bass, harmony and melody. In Beethoven's time there were guitars, Schubert composed on the guitar because he didn't have money for a piano. If Beethoven composed on piano it is for something

Piano and guitar occupy the same space so kinda hard to make them play nice. That said these guys are amazing and I’m sure they could arrange something 💥

[@jrdardonl]

Andrés Segovia (forefather of the contemporary repertoire for guitar) used to say that, because of its many complexities, the guitar is an instrument that could emulates a whole orchestra. Thank you very much for show us mortals the contrasts between of both instruments, beautiful and poweful as they are.

[@Flyingbeardman123]

A few big things missing from this video: - Guitar can have up to six different ways of playing the same note. This makes for plenty of different ways of playing the same exact chord voicing or melody. You can either choose to play inversions horizontally across the neck, as shown in the video, or you can play them vertically up the neck, or diagonally as well. - The acoustic guitar is capable of producing various timbres. E.g., sul tasto and sul ponticello. Not to mention light vs heavy pick and string gauges to produce warmer or brighter sounds. Furthermore, the angle of attack of a pick or nails (with classical guitar) also dictates timbre. - Piano can have more voicings for counterpoint, guitar normally has around 3 maximum (4 is really pushing it). Counterpoint is harder on guitar. - Guitars can actually bend notes, piano can only emulate bends via grace notes and common blues phrasing. - Since guitars can have different tunings this means you basically need to relearn the instrument all over again for each tuning. - There are several extended techniques for guitar that require mastery if you want to successfully play in a particular genre. E.g., fast tremolo picking and palm muting for metal, slide for blues, strumming, muting, slapping, and thumping for funk. I'm of course not saying guitar is more difficult or even more versatile. Keyboards permeate the same genres as guitar and the control and dexterity it takes to play counterpoint to the point of four or more voices is mind breaking for guitarists who've not studied keyboard, or heavy polyphony.

[@edwardcaldwell9644]

Having learned with what can be called low level success at each, my vote is that the piano is way harder. It is easier to make coherent sounds on a piano, but with the guitar both hands always work together. With the piano, the most complex music requires you to basically play to different songs with each hand (melody and accompaniment)

[@Komatik_]

Even pretty simple music, frankly. Just something like The Doors' Riders on the Storm gets there immediately. A repeating bassline that's still more melodic than percussive (in contrast to eg. a blues shuffle) which is really easy, I suck and can play the bassline and talk at the same time. The lead isn't hard either. Playing both simple things at the same time? Yeah, it gets *hard* immediately, even if the parts themselves are easy.

[@orshy1]

I don't know about this comparison... You have to sync your hands to a rhythm with both instruments, but on a guitar they are doing radically different motions. At least with the piano you are using similar mechanics on each hand. You might train each hand individually on a piano, but you can apply the same theories to both of them. With guitar, the left versus right hand are two completely different areas of study.

[@Komatik_]

@@orshy1 The difference in the mechanisms isn't hard - the operation of the guitar is easy. The brain's fundamentally built to coordinate disparate parts of our body to do things, but the brain is fundamentally a monotasker. The piano is difficult exactly because of that: Your hands have to be instructed to do different focus-requiring things at the same time, which is something the brain inherently sucks at. I play both pretty badly, and the playing basic guitar is a lot easier than playing basic piano. The guitar is just about refining your execution (which isn't to say that there isn't a ton of work in that - excellent execution is hard regardless), the piano gets to the point where you have to wrestle with the brain not being able to do two things at once pretty quickly. Even maintaining a basic blues shuffle while doing simple noodling on top needs work, as does my above example of The Doors' Riders on the Storm. The lead part and the bassline are both quite easy and even I can play them fine. Playing the leads on top of the bass, nope. That's hard as shit. The stuff I've found to be much easier on the piano is understanding what I'm actually playing. Since it's one long line of notes that are spoken of with their names, it's sort of impossible to not be aware of what notes I'm playing. With the guitar, I'd learn a pattern for the minor scale, say, and pick a root note and just play on the pattern. I'd have no clue what notes I was actually playing, let alone from what octaves. With the piano I just know, and it's pretty hard not to. It's also really easy to visualize other instruments' ranges and such, which isn't anywhere near as easy on the guitar. That ease of understanding's also really made piano the first instrument I can actually express myself and improvise on, even if it's in a somewhat limited fashion.

[@guisedeguise468]

The most difficulty in piano is the complete indipendence in each hand. The brain have to work completely separated...in guitar you have to coordinate the hands just for make a single note or chord but you do not have to separete the hemisphere of your brain like in piano skills

[@kralkrauterblach414]

[@keithkong5365]

Not a piano person myself, but my kid's been playing piano for about 10 year and I've been filming her progress. Thought to share some data: # years piano practice 4 years - kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqHOdZ6NZt-jfdE 5 years - kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpSUf6GOYteYq9U 7 years - kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5PaeICZqJaDo6c 8 years - kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYbcpXaci95ooK8 9 years - kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJ-4mH15jsmXm9k Acquiring independence in each hand took a few years. But there's a lot more after that. Some challenges that come to mind: * leaps - there are 88 keys. Some pieces make you go from one set of notes to another set of notes some dozens of keys away. Easy to hit the wrong notes. Even if you hit the right notes, you hit them with the wrong pressure and people can hear you made a mistake. * accompaniment + melody on the same hand - it's not just left hand accompaniment and right hand melody. In advanced pieces, the accompaniment and melody shifts from hand to hand. Sometimes in the same hand, you are playing accompaniment *and* melody at the same time. Somehow your brain has to tell the fingers that play melody to hit those notes harder than the ones playing the accompaniment. * pedaling - supposedly really advanced pianists can do 6 levels of pedaling pressure. Not sure how that works. Also, there are 3 pedals doing different things. Advanced pianists use all 3 pedals, vs. just the one that does sustain/no sustain. * dynamics - unlike harpischord, which is either string is plucked or not, piano uses hammer action. Depending on how fast the hammer hits the string, the sound is louder or softer. So there is infinite variation in terms of volume even in playing a single note. * articulation - subtle differences in time interval between pressing to conscutive keys contribute to "staccato" (short and detached) and "legato" (smooth and connected). Advanced pianists have more control in the intermediate variants between staccato and legato.
