How to read musical notes, scales and keys – Chaka Music Production

• Accidental : # (sharp) rises by half, b (flat) falls by half, natural returns to pitch again.

• Key Signature : Key signature related to basic notes,

Basic formula:

• Don’t change the order of the letters. if you move the basic note only changes as it happens just. example: ABCDEFGA, arranged from left to right.

2. If there is a notation accompanied by a # or / followed by the same notation, then the accidental notation is not written repeatedly.

The picture above shows the note C# followed by parallel notes. It can be seen that the # sign is not written repeatedly because logically it means it follows the previous note on the same line/space.

3. If the C note in the previous bar has an accidental to C#, then to return it to C, use a natural sign

4. If you use a sign key signaturee we can see that on the lines / spaces where there are accidentals. so you don’t need to write the accidental sign many times.

on the note F#, it is written as if it were a natural F, because in the key signature it is stated that every note that is on the 4th line from the bottom, the note is raised by 1/2 because there is a # sign.
