I just used stupid acronyms
Like for the treble clef, it would be "Every, Good, Boy, Does, Fine"
------------------------------F------
------------------------D------------
-------------------B-----------------
--------------G------
---------E
You get the point
i'm js trying to learn it rn like focus on learning it
Yeah face too
A mistake I made was thinking the acronyms started up going down
my brain can't like fkn uh process fast enough
You shouldn't be trying
i'm using a site called music theory, like excersises
Every person learning how to read sheet music starts slow
Well
Keep spaces in mind
If it's 5 jumps apart like
--------------------0--
---------------------0-
Let's just pretend those are 2 whole notes
So the bottom would be e and the upper would be b
The amount of spaces they're apart (including the ones they're on) is the amount of keys they're apart on a keyboard
There's also finger placement
It's a bad thing to always rely on finger placement because then you start relying on it more than the actual notes
But it helps to pay attention
Idk it's hard to explain
i see
you see i came from letter notes like, i learned it like g# shi before trying to learn music sheet aka notations
that's why i have a hard time shifting to it
if you can't play it at a certain speed, slow your metronome down. Consistency over Speed
Yeah that's completely fine
I came from synthesia tutorials
Also if you notice any patterns
Then use that
Like
I'm not typing out the lines cuz holy shit those take a long time
synthesia?
wanna hop on vc or smth
You know those videos you see with the rectangles that fall on the keys as the pianist presses them
OHHH
YEA
Usually from an overhead view
yea yea
Those
i wanna learn moon light sonata mov1 and 3
no my grandmother is using an extremely loud radio
mainly those two
That's gonna be pretty hard
i have the part 1 and the half of part two of mov 1
Like let's say the first measure is
You know what a measure is right
My best advice is to just get a teacher honestly
Best start with hanon and czerny
Hanon and czerny?
😓😓
They're pianists
Hanon and Czerny composed LITERAL hundreds of pieces (some long, most usually short) and they're there to help beginners train their technique
The more you go down the line of hanon and Czerny pieces the more you'll realize they also compose more than JUST baby pieces
They're basically the stepping stones to not just improving your technique, but also getting more used to reading sheets. If you wanna play Ms 3rd movement or any of the Chopin etudes, you go through them
Read a shit ton of sheet music and eventually you memorize all the notes
Try Czerny op. 599
Just try the first 10 pieces and see how you'll like them
It's better if you have a teacher guide you through them
Thankss
throwing it out there, the bass clef mnennonym is 'Good Boys Deserve Fudge / Do Fight Always'. Space = All Cows Eat Grass
