How to unlock the Ivory Tower achievement in The Sims 4 - Definitive Guide

Well, in addition to what was provided by the other guide (using books), you can also cheat your way into grinding this skill.

So, to do that,you need to do the following :
Step 1 : Press cn_LTcn_LBcn_RBcn_RT, it should open a command box on the top left corner of your screen, press cn_A
Step 2 : Type the following into your command box Traits.equip_trait SteelBladder and then press Start to gain the trait SteelBladder.
Step 3 : Now repeat step 2 but instead of SteelBladder, enter the following traits :
Needs traits : NeverWeary (Energy need never decrease), ForeverFresh (Hygiene need never decrease), ForeverFull(Hunger need never decrease), NeedsNoOne (Social need never decrease). The only need that will keep going down, depending on the skill you're mastering is the "Fun" one.
Useful traits : Savant (Helps learn skills faster), MorningSim (Helps learn skills faster in the morning)/NightOwl (Helps learn skills faster during the night), sadly only one of those two can be picked.
{I believe I have listed all the traits I used to master my skills but if I forgot some, I will add them later.}

Once you are done adding all required traits, you can click on a piano and select "Practice Piano" and then speed the game on the fastest speed and let your Sim level up its Piano skill. Thanks to the traits, unless you have a job, you can go from 0 to 10 in one go.
Yes, its cheap, but since it doesn't disable your achievement, why not?

Hope it is useful! Please do leave your comments if you have anything to add.

if just looking for the achievement itself, the sims 4 community has families you can download from the gallery that already have maxed out piano skill (or just about to reach it), so that is the quickest option available

To do this, you can either buy all 3 Piano books (which'll rank you up to level 9) and/or buy a Piano ($1415) and keep practicing on that.
If you use the 3 books, you can only level up to level 9, so you will have to buy the piano anyway.

The Piano Skill is required for the Entertainment Career (Musician Branch). To level the skill up, you simply need to play on the Piano. Playing songs works, but it’s much easier to just “Practice Piano” since it will only stop the action when you manually stop it or if one of the Sim’s needs becomes red.

Your skill will increase faster if you have the “Inspired” Moodlet active. There is a painting you can buy from the store (in Build Mode) that will activate an Aura that will give you a permanent Inspired Moodlet so long as you are close by. The painting, however, requires you to reach Level 3 of either the Painting or Writing career before you can purchase it.

If you don’t have that career level yet, getting inspired is not too difficult. Here are a few ways to get the Moodlet:

  • Plunk for Inspiration (Piano Level 3 Required)
  • Pluck for Inspiration (Guitar Level 3 Required)
  • Bow for Inspiration (Violin Level 3 Required)
  • Earn the “Delicious Meal” Moodlet from cooking (Gourmet Cooking level 4 required)
  • Take a Thoughtful Shower
  • Drink Prose and Pop (Mixology Level 1, Bar Required)

Once you have become Inspired, keep practicing at the Piano and when you reach Level 10 (Max Level), the trophy will unlock.

If you are completing Aspirations for aspiration points, you want to work on Creativity - Musical Genius one while leveling up this skill.
