Hello
I am a young pianist,have gotten my own keyboard and I LOVE to learn and play new songs.But the thing is,I can’t read sheet music or tell the difference between different notes(as much as I love to play,I never was able to quite understand all the notes and whatnot in music class lol,I’ve tried.)But what song really intrigues me is Clair de Lune by Claude Debussy,but I’m not exactly good with playing a song that requires to use both hands at the same time to make different notes simultaneously(I get sidetracked).Any helpful advice for a young-beginner?

The best thing you can do is learn to read music. It is freedom!
You can learn many pieces if you do and learn how to add fingerings for each hand and put them together.
Best of luck!
Thanks Steven!
