Reading Music & Notes on the1st & 2nd Strings
How to Read Music
Music is written on a STAFF which has 5 lines and 4 spaces.
Music is read from left to right just like you would read a book. Where the note is on the staff tells you how high it is or how low it is in pitch.
The note can be on a line or a space. Each line of the staff has a letter name that goes with it. The musical alphabet goes from A to G.
Rhythm
There are four main types of notes that vary according to how long they are played.
