How Basic Sheet Music Can Make A Great Musician Out Of You

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.

One of the most important things that you can tell yourself as you are trying to learn this type of thing is to not give up. It is so easy to quit just after a few days of practice because it seems like it's never going to get any easier. You just have to push on through and do whatever it takes to not give up.

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.

A time signature is an easy enough thing to understand, and it will help you out a lot in your musical learning. It tells you how many beats are going to be in a measure. This makes counting everything out much simpler to understand.

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.

Rhythm is a lot easier to get the hang of if you understand what note values are. If you are working with the simplest of songs, you will probably mostly only see half notes, whole notes, quarter notes, and maybe an eighth note here or there. Once you get the hang of these, your musical learning will go a lot faster.

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.

You are likely to see different symbols in more complex musical pieces. You shouldn't have to worry about those if you are just learning the basics. At the most, you might see a few simple dynamics, maybe some accents, and a few sharps and flats.
