Piano Note Reading for Beginners
Piano note reading is much easier than many beginning pianists think it is. Ultimately, the reading of the piano note is simply a matter of memorization and repetition. In other words, once you learn the basics, all you have to do is put in practice, and do many times as necessary to fully internalize their reading of the note.
No doubt you've seen what is known as the staff - the system of five lines and four spaces in which musical notes are organized. In musical notation, in the far left of a team that is always a key which is basically a symbol indicating how the notes on the staff should be read.
There are many different types of keys, but fortunately for the start pianists, the vast majority of music offers piano solo with two keys, treble clef and bass clef. The treble clef is often used to record the first octave Right of Middle C, while the bass clef is usually used to record a few octaves to the left of Middle C.
In each beam, no matter what the key is successive lines and spaces represent ascending notes of the scale. For example, in the treble clef, the lowest line represents E. Therefore, the space just above lower line represents H, just above the line representing G, the space above that is A, and so on.
In the treble clef, appears as a kind of reverse "S" with some extras thrown curly signals, and focuses on the second line above, the notes are as follows: Five lines, from bottom to top, support for EGBD and F, while the four spaces represent FAC and E. All pianists principle should memorize these soon in the learning process. FACE is an acronym easy to remember, while EGBDF lends itself to a variety of mnemonic phrases that you can do yourself. For example, when I took my classes, I was forced to memorize: "Every good boy deserves fudge."
Often, when reading music, you will see more "lines" added above or below the staff. These are nothing more than extensions of staff, and follow the same sequence of notes on the staff. For example, the invisible line a space below the treble staff - a note that you will see very, very often - means middle C, because it is a space and a line below the E represents the first line.
The bass clef, which looks like a backward "C" with two points around the second line from the top, is like this: The five GBDF floor lines and A, while the four spaces represent the ECA and G. Again, there are many mnemonic devices to remember them, but it's better to do theirs own.
With many piano songs, especially for beginners, the left hand plays the notes in the bass clef, while the right hand plays the notes of the treble clef. The two areas meet in the middle C, which is two grades below the lowest line in the treble clef staff, and two notes above the line highest in the bass clef staff.
Beyond this basic memorization of the notes represented by the lines and spaces, piano note reading also implies a certain knowledge of what is meant by different symbols. The most common symbols you will see a strong and flat. The sharp symbol, which resembles the number sign (#) indicates that the accompanying note should be raised one step and a half. Meanwhile, the flat symbol looks like the letters "b" and indicates that the accompanying note should be played a semitone lower. Moreover, once they start to learn more keys and scales, you need to know the symbol natural, that cancels a sharp or is dictated by the key. It is also important to remember that when you see a symbol of sharp, flat, or natural, that symbol is in force throughout the measurement.
From now on, things become more complicated. But do not worry. Learning to read the notes of the piano is a baby-step process. Try not learn everything at once. Instead, focus on one thing at a time, and practice until it comes as easy as breathing. As always, this is the key to learning piano.
