This is a video that covers the very basic things you need to know when you are going to read sheet music. Its based on visual examples and my explanations, and some audio -samples.

If something is unclear, you have to pause to look extra at the pictures, rewind to listen extra times. When it comes to this kind of theory, you just have to take it slow. Cause going to fast makes you miss important things.

To pause and rewind is especially important since this video Had to be Maximum 10minutes. So some things are explained very fast.

Any questions? Please make them in the comment-section, also please help each other out if you have an answer to someones question :)

Hope it helps. Im planning 2 more instructional-videos covering some FAQ's and Major Scales. Those will be filmed at the piano.

Take Care
Thomas

  • @thomandy do(can) you teach this for clarinet?

  • @me6ur Sorry, but I have never studied the clarinet - I guess its = to the flute in theory?! Either way, the notes are the same on the staff etc, but I have no idea where they are on the actual clarinet!

Wonderful video, I am not new to reading music, but I have taken a year off from my classes (I began learning piano-my first instrument-in college) and then
