PITCH SYMBOLS 1. Work in groups of four. Each student will read one definition, find the symbol in the score below and label it. Tell the rest of your group what your symbol is used for. Do you know the names for these symbols in Spanish? 1. Stave: music is written on it. It consist of five lines and four spaces between the lines 2. Treble clef: it is placed at the beginning of every musical line 3. Notes: symbols to represent the different musical sounds 4. Ledger lines: short lines above or below the standard five lines to give more information 2.1. NOTES IN THE TREBLE CLEF In English, every musical note has a letter name. The first 7 letters of the alphabet are used to name the 7 basic musical notes: A, B, C, D, E, F, G. The distance between one note and the next with the same name is called an octave. A sequence of 8 notes, beginning and ending with the same note, ordered from low sounds to high sounds or the other way round, is called a scale. These are the notes that we find within the stave. The English names are written inside them. 8 Material AICLE. 1º de ESO: Reading and writing music 1. Can you guess the name of the notes outside the stave? Be careful!! In English, the sequence of notes doesn’t start with the same sound as in Spanish 2. Match the English names for notes with the Spanish ones. A Sol B Mi C Re D Fa E La F Si G Do Material AICLE. 1º de ESO: Reading and writing music 9 3. Work in pairs. These are the notes that sit on the stave lines. Write the name of the note in the space underneath. Now create a sentence of five words beginning with the letters of each note, in the same order as they appear here. Sentence: -------------- --------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- 4. Work with a different partner. Do the same thing with the notes on the stave spaces. Sentence: -------------- --------------- ------------- ------------- 10 Material AICLE. 1º de ESO: Reading and writing music 5. Work with a different partner. Think of a word you can write with the letters of the musical alphabet. “Translate” the word into musical notation on this stave. Give the score to your partner. S/he has to guess which word you have written. Remember! You can only use the first seven letters of the alphabet!!! 6. Complete the following story. First, write the names of the notes to form words. Then, listen to your teacher/assistant reading the story and fill in the gaps. John was walking when he saw a looking at him. It was a baby. He looked lost. “I wonder what he is?” thought John. The baby started to cry. “Should I him? Then, John saw a woman. She was calling” John was so happy because the baby was not lost any more.

Write some notes on this stave and decide on a clef. Give it to your partner. She/he must write the name of the notes. Then, correct it. 3. DURATION SYMBOLS Music is a temporal art – it is not static, it happens in time. The sounds of a melody follow a rhythm, related to the beat of the song. Different symbols are used to represent the rhythm.

    TIME SIGNATURES, TEMPO, BEAT and GORDONIAN SYLLABLES EXPLAINED

    TIME SIGNATURES, TEMPO, BEAT and GORDONIAN SYLLABLES EXPLAINED TIME SIGNATURES Time Signatures are represented by a fraction. The top number tells the performer how many beats in each measure. This number can be any number from 1 to infinity. However, time signatures, for us, will rarely have a top number larger than 7. The bottom number can only be the numbers 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, et c. These numbers represent the note values of a whole note, half note, quarter note, eighth note, sixteenth note, thirty- second note, sixty-fourth note, one hundred twenty-eighth note, two hundred fifty-sixth note, five hundred twelfth note, et c. However, time signatures, for us, will only have a bottom numbers 2, 4, 8, 16, and possibly 32. Examples of Time Signatures: TEMPO Tempo is the speed at which the beats happen. The tempo can remain steady from the first beat to the last beat of a piece of music or it can speed up or slow down within a section, a phrase, or a measure of music. Performers need to watch the conductor for any changes in the tempo. Tempo is the Italian word for “time.” Below are terms that refer to the tempo and metronome settings for each term. BPM is short for Beats Per Minute. This number is what one would set the metronome. Please note that these numbers are generalities and should never be considered as strict ranges. Time Signatures, music genres, instrumentations, and a host of other considerations may make a tempo of Grave a little faster or slower than as listed below.

    Theory of Music

    MUSIC THEORY 1. Staffs, Clefs & Pitch notation Naming the Notes Musical notation describes the pitch (how high or low), temporal position (when to start) and duration (how long) of discrete elements, or sounds, we call notes . The notes are represented by graphical symbols, also called notes or note signs . In English-speaking countries, the pitch names given to a row of notes steadily rising in pitch are drawn from the the first seven letters of the Roman alphabet: A B C D E F G In the Netherlands, the letters A to G are also used, but otherwise the 'Dutch' system follows the 'German' system, so-called because it originated in Germany, which also uses H. Staff or Stave The note signs are placed on a grid formed of horizontal lines and spaces. This grid is called the staff or stave . The plural of either word is staves . Although, in the past, staves could have many different numbers of lines, today the most common staff format has five lines separated by four spaces and is know as the pentagram . When numbering the lines, it is a widely used convention to number them from the bottom ( 1) to the top ( 5) of each staff. The spaces between the lines are numbered too, again from the bottom ( 1) to the top ( 4). Redaction and Publishing Marzenna Donajski © Dolmetsch Music Theory and History Online by Dr. Brian Blood 1 Music is read from 'left' to 'right', in the same direction as you are reading this text. The higher the pitch of the note , the higher vertically the note will be placed on the staff .

Expanded techniques to intensify rhythmic training and introduce ensemble skills were effective. Second and third year students learned to play the pieces well and profited from the experience. Although 20th century composers and children are highly compatible, teachers often resist their responsibility to act as the essential intermediary link. The most serious obstacle appears to be reluctance to spend sufficient time on preparation to meet new musical demands. For related document see ED 025 850.

If of different spices. the piece of music is to sound right, then you have to use the elements of It’s a soup with all kinds of ingredients music correctly. in it.” - Abigail Washburn What are the Elements of Music? PITCH means the highness or lowness of the sound. Some pieces need high sounds and some need low, deep sounds. Some have sounds that are in the middle. Most pieces use a mixture of pitches. TEMPO means the fastness or slowness of the music. Sometimes this is called the speed or pace of the music. A piece might be at a moderate tempo, or even change its tempo part-way through. DYNAMICS means the loudness or softness of the music. Sometimes this is called the volume. Music often changes volume gradually, and goes from loud to soft or soft to loud. Questions to think about: 1. Think about your DURATION means the length of each sound. Some sounds or notes are long, favourite piece of some are short. Sometimes composers combine long sounds with short music – it could be a song or a piece of sounds to get a good effect. instrumental music. How have the TEXTURE – if all the instruments are playing at once, the texture is thick.

OLIVEIRA JR., University of Sao˜ Paulo e representation of basic elements of music in terms of discrete audio signals is oen used in soware for musical creation and design. Nevertheless, there is no unied approach that relates these elements to the discrete samples of digitized sound. In this article, each musical element is related by equations and algorithms to the discrete-time samples of sounds, and each of these relations are implemented in scripts within a soware toolbox, referred to as MASS (Music and Audio in Sample Sequences). e fundamental element, the musical note with duration, volume, pitch and timbre, is related quantitatively to characteristics of the digital signal. Internal variations of a note, such as tremolos, vibratos and spectral uctuations, are also considered, which enables the synthesis of notes inspired by real instruments and new sonorities. With this representation of notes, resources are provided for the generation of higher scale musical structures, such as rhythmic meter, pitch intervals and cycles. is framework enables precise and trustful scientic experiments, data sonication and is useful for education and art. e ecacy of MASS is conrmed by the synthesis of small musical pieces using basic notes, elaborated notes and notes in music, which reects the organization of the toolbox and thus of this article. It is possible to synthesize whole albums through collage of the scripts and seings specied by the user.

It ~s believed among some MUSICAL SAW players, however, that i t originated in South America in the 1800's and some believe the idea was imported into the U. S. from Europe . I well remember the fi r st time I heard it played. It wa s in Buffalo, N.Y. and played at the Ebrwood M!L6,£.c..Ha..U about 1910 when I was a boy. It has been used extensively in the ho me, on stage at private cl ubs, church fun ctions, social gatherings , hospita l s and nursing homes, in vaudevi l le and theaters for years, and more recently on Radio and Televisi on Programs in the enter­ tainmentfield. The late Cf.alte.nc..e.MM ~e.ht , of Fort Atkinson, Wi sconsin, was the first to introduce and suppl y Musical Saw Kits to the field under the name of M!L6 ~e. ht&Wutpha1.,** and did a great deal to develop the best line of SAWS suitable for this use, after considerable research. Before taking up the MUSICAL SAW and going into the detail s of there­ quired proceedure for playing it wel l , it is important to understand some of the basic rudiments and techniques involved for it's proper manipu l ation. While the MUSICAL SAW is essential l y a typi cal carpenter's or craftsman's saw, it' s use as a very unique musical instrument has gained in popu larity, and has recently become a means of expressing a very distinctive qua l ity of music.
