hey guys can we learn some music, I ll teach you jus some basic without confusing you...
Shall we begin...
Music is an art form in which the medium is sound. Common elements of music are pitch (which governs melody and harmony), rhythm (and its associated concepts tempo, meter, and articulation), dynamics, and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture.
In standard Western musical notation, the staff is a set of five horizontal lines and four spaces, on which note symbols are placed to indicate their pitch.
Stave is the name for the five parallel, equally-spaced, horizontal lines which hold one or more parts of music:
The pitches indicated by the vertical position of notes on the staff are relative to a fixed pitch that is determined by the placement of a symbol called a clef at the left-hand side of the staff.
you will play treble cleff in right hand
An alternative name, still used in some countries, is staff, with staves as the plural (see alternative names for different names used in different countries)
you will play base cleff in left hand
At the far left of a stave, there should always be a vertical line with either small brackets as on the stave above, or with a brace which spans multiple staves (see example to the right) to group two or more staves together.
Multiple staves that are held together with a bracket or brace are often just called a "line", but this term can be confusing, so the term "system" is preferred, although this is not in very common usage. For example, if a choir leader or conductor refers to the "second line", it is not necessarily clear whether he/she is referring to the second stave or the second system
The stave represents two aspects of music at once, but neither is represented absolutely or strictly:
Time is represented on a stave horizontally:
Music on a single stave or system is read starting from the left and moving towards the right.When you reach the right-hand end of the stave or system, you go immediately to the left hand of the stave or system below, just as you do when reading a book. Horizontal distance is not "to scale" or consistent. It cannot be compared exactly between two different pieces of music, or even necessarily between different places in the same piece of music. In one piece of music, two inches/centimetres measured horizontally on the stave might represent 5 seconds, in another piece, two inches/centimetres might represent half a second.
Frequency or pitch is represented on a stave vertically, and notes are placed on the stave to indicate their note pitch:
A high note is placed higher on the stave than a low note. A note is higher than another if it has faster vibrations, frequency or pitch
The representation of frequency or pitch on the stave is not absolute. A note at one particular vertical position on one stave might not sound the same pitch as an identically-positioned note on another stave. However, the stave becomes an absolute indicator of frequency or pitch by the placement of a clef at the beginning of each stave.
This is how music is written, read and understood... these are basics... if its too technical send your comments to me...
I ll make it simple for you guys in my next post...
