What do you think of the piano score?

Piano (Italian: pianoforte) is a keyboard instrument in western classical music. Really? King of musical instruments? Good name. So, what about the piano score? Come and have a look with me.

First, understand the staff and its formula.

Treble clef: You sing 1, 2- 1, 2-3, 3-5, 4- 1, 2-3, 4-6, 1, 5-7 and 5-7 on the next line.

Bass clef: sing 1 as a line, 7- 1, 2-3, 5-7-2, 4, 5, 6-5438+0-3, 5, 3- 1-6, 4-2, 4.

Correspondence diagram of notes and piano keys

The central c sings 1 in notation, that is, Do, d sings 2, that is, re, and so on.

Generally speaking, the score of treble clef is played with the right hand and the score of bass clef is played with the left hand. As for how to place and bounce your fingers, I won't go into details here.

Second, know the notes.

Generally speaking, a note consists of three parts: Fu Tou, Fu Gan and Fu Wei. Fu Tou can be hollow or solid (see the figure below), and the beat per minute between them is half; Except for the whole note, all other notes have stems, and the original time of adding stems has also been reduced by half.

Note: Sing the corresponding sound according to the line or interval where Fu Tou is located.

As shown above, the whole note sings four beats, the binary note sings two beats, the quarter note sings 1 beat, the eighth note sings half beat, the sixteenth note sings 1/4 beat, the thirty-second note sings 1/8 beat, and so on. Every time the number of tail beats is increased, it becomes the original 1/2.

A dotted note is a dot marked on the right side of the note Fu Tou to increase the beat value of the note. If there is a symbol point on the right side of a note, it means that the beat value of this note will increase by 1/2 beats on the original basis.

Common phonetic symbols

The semitone symbol (b) indicates that the pitch of the basic level is lowered by semitone, and it is lowered by semitone according to the line or space where the symbol is located.

A minus sign (#) indicates lowering the raised or lowered sound.

A sharp sign (#) indicates that the pitch of the basic level is raised by half a tone, and the pitch is lowered according to the line or space where the symbol is located.

For example:

As shown in the above figure, the symbols are fa up, do up and si down.

discontinue

Rest indicates discontinuous symbols of different long and short notes, which are expressed according to different beat values, as shown in the above figure.

Maintenance line

The upward curved curve in the red border above is called sustain line, which can connect two or more notes with the same pitch. When playing the piano, as a note, its beat value is equal to the sum of the beat values of these notes. Of course, the sustain line can also be represented by a downward curved curve.

3. What do you think of key signature in the piano score?

Before you learn to play a new piece, you should look at clef, key signature and time signature. The most difficult thing to accept at first is the key signature. So many staff symbols in different positions have different keys, which is too difficult to master!

Before we talk about key signature, we should know a few questions first.

1, the correspondence between sound names and volume names on the staff.

Pinyin names: c, d, e, f, g, a, b

Roll call: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Pronunciation: do re mi fa sol Lars

2. There is a semitone between E and F, B and C of the white keys on the piano keyboard, so E can also be called F-flat, F can also be called E-sharp, B-sharp and C-sharp, and so on. The other white keys are all full tones, and the white keys form a scale in C major, and the scale in C major has no sharp sign or flat sign. So if we want to use D as 1(do), that is, to play music in D major, we must naturally follow the rules of scales, so we must have black keys to adjust it, because black keys and the adjacent white keys are semitones. This is why different keys have different ascending and descending signs.

3, the first roll call method and the fixed roll call method.

The first sound roll call method is a singing method to determine the roll call of sound according to the mode of music. Sing the major tonic (I tone) as do, others as re, mi, fa, sol, la and si in turn, minor tonic (I tone) as la, others as si, do, re, mi, fa and sol in turn. That is to say, the same sound has different roll names in different keys, such as C, do in C major or A minor, sol in F major or D minor. Therefore, the sound name and volume name in this singing method are not fixed, and the position of volume name, piano keyboard and staff is also not fixed. The sound on the same key is different on different keys.

The method of tuning roll call is to sing the sound names c, d, e, f, g, a and b as do, re, mi, fa, sol, la and si respectively. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the sound name and the volume name, and the position on the staff and the piano keyboard is also one-to-one correspondence. No matter how many ascending and descending symbols there are on the staff, the roll name remains the same. Just be careful not to miss the ascending and descending symbols when reading the roll call, such as do in Ascending and re in Descending.

Let's take an example: We see that there is a flat semitone on the staff of the song Dongfanghong, that is, 7(si), which means that the song is in F (1=F). Do you see it? Dongfanghong, the sun has risen? These four bars are sung by roll call: 5 56 | 2- | 1 16 | 2- | (the 6 in the third bar should be bass). The roll call method is: 112 | 5-| 4 42 | 5 | (the first section1and 2 should be high notes).

We'd better learn the piano by using the fixed-tone roll call method first, because its roll call and sound name are the same as those on the keyboard, so when we see a certain sound on the score, we can immediately find the corresponding sound on the keyboard, which is very convenient to use. However, there is no obvious mode mark in this way of roll call, so it is very troublesome for the player to judge the tune of the music. Let's talk about how to judge what key it is when you see the elevator.

First look at the possible sharp marks (#) on the staff:

1 sharp sign in 4(#F) G major (not involving minor at first)

4, 1(#F, c) Two sharp signs in D major.

Three semitones in 4, 1, 5(#F, c, G) A major.

4, 1, 5, 2(#F, c, g, D) E major with four semitones.

Five semitones in 4, 1, 5, 2, 6(#F, c, g, d, A) B major.

Six sharp corners in 4, 1, 5, 2, 6, 3(#F, c, g, d, a, E) #F major.

Seven sharp corners in 4, 1, 5, 2, 6, 3, 7(#F, c, g, d, a, e, B) #C major.

Let's look at the possible flat sign (B) on the staff.

1 F flat semitone symbol

Two flat semitones in 7,3 (bb, E) bB major.

Three flat semitones in 7,3,6 (bb, e, a) are major.

Four flat semitones in 7,3,6,2 (bb, e, a, D) bA major.

Five flat semitones in 7, 3, 6, 2, 5(bB, e, a, d, G) bD major.

Six flat signs in 7, 3, 6, 2, 5, 1(bB, e, a, d, g, C) bG major.

Seven flat signs in 7, 3, 6, 2, 5, 1, 4(bB, e, a, d, g, c, F) bC major.

We summarized the following points:

1: 4, 1, 5, 2, 6, 3, 7, from left to right, in ascending order. If you see the sharp sign (#) on the staff, then one sharp sign must be 4 (fa) and two sharp signs must be 4, 1 (fa, fa).

4, 1, 5, 2, 6, 3, 7. From right to left, the order of descending symbols is. If you see a flat symbol (B) on the staff, then a flat symbol must be 7 (si), two flat symbols must be 7,3 (Si, mi), and so on.

2. The key to judging several ascending and descending constellations is also regular. The following is my own judgment method. (The red roll call is the roll call of the first song)

Sharp corner: No matter how many sharp corners appear, the last sharp corner is 7 in the first key, so we add a semitone to the last sharp corner to be 1, and we will know what key it is.

For example, in a sharp corner, the first key is 7, and then 4 plus semitone is 5, 1 = 5, which is G major.

Two sharp signs, 4, 1, 1 are the first key 7, 1 plus semitone is 2, 1=2, which is D major.

When there are six sharp corners, the last one is 3, which represents 7 in the first key, and a semitone represents 4, 1 = 4, which is #F major.

Flat sign: No matter how many flat signs appear, the last flat sign is 4 in the first key, so go ahead in turn to 1, which is the key.

For example, a flat sign, flat 7, flat 7 is the first key 4, so 6 is 3, 5 is 2, 4 is 1, 1=4, which is F major.

Two flat signs, 7, 3, 3 is the first key 4, so 2 is 3, 1 is 2, 7 is 1, 1= 7, which is bB major.

Six flat notes, the last one is 1, Ping 1 is the first key 4, Ping 7 is 3, Ping 6 is 2, Ping 5 is 1, 1= Ping 5, bG major.

When judging, we must pay attention to the semitone between 3 and 4, 7 and 1, that is to say, a rise of 3 means 4, and a fall of 1 means 7.

3. It is relatively simple to judge the sharp number. You can know what the key is by adding a semitone to the last rising semitone. Flat signs seem troublesome, but they are not. Except for one flat in F major, the penultimate flat is 1 in the first key, which is the key!

7,3 3: bb major.

7, 3, 6: Be professional.

7, 3, 6, 2: In 2:bA major. And so on.
