Start Simple With Basic Sheet Music

By Robert Gray


Many people are tempted to try to pick the most difficult thing they can find for their very first time reading this type of thing. If this is what you are thinking about, you may want to reconsider. You actually will have much better luck with basic sheet music than you will have with the most complex pieces you can find, and you won't advance a lot faster if you try something way above your level, contrary to what some people believe.

Some people might be discouraged easily and have a hard time pressing forward when things get difficult. If this is the kind of person you are, you might find ways to keep yourself motivated when things are at their hardest in the musical learning process. One of the ways that many people have helped themselves is with a friend who is their practice buddy, or by putting motivational posters up on the wall.

Something to remember is that practice makes perfect. The more you practice, the more you're exercising your musical muscle and making it stronger. Soon enough, your muscle memory in your fingers will just start putting them in the right spot without you even having to think about it.

One of the first things to learn when you are trying to figure out how to read music is what a time signature is. This will be two numbers, one on top of the other, at the beginning of the song. And extremely common time signature is four-four time, a four on top of another four, and it is very easy to get the hang of.

A key signature is easy enough to understand if you're willing to take the time. The thing that you need to know is that the key signature will be the thing that determines what the notes will sound like, which accounts for the quality and emotion in the tune. The great thing about easier songs is that they will be in the key of C most of the time, or else F, or perhaps G, all of which have minimal or no sharps or flats.

If you are not sure how to count out notes, it has never been a better time to learn. The reason why it seems difficult is that you have to get the hang of keeping a steady beat. Once you learn the basics, it isn't that hard at all, and so you'll want to start out with quarter notes, half notes, and whole notes.

Note names are the key to understanding the musical staff. You might want to learn about the different methods of memorization when it comes to this kind of thing. That way, you won't have to keep your notecards with you all the time.

There are many symbols that you might see in a complex score. In something like this, you're likely to only see perhaps a sharp or a flat. These are easy to recognize since one looks like a lowercase B and the other like a hashtag.
