Where To Find Basic Sheet Music

By Robert Gray


Many people are tempted to try to pick the most difficult thing they can find for their very first time reading this type of thing. If this is what you are thinking about, you may want to reconsider. You actually will have much better luck with basic sheet music than you will have with the most complex pieces you can find, and you won't advance a lot faster if you try something way above your level, contrary to what some people believe.

One of the most important things that you can tell yourself as you are trying to learn this type of thing is to not give up. It is so easy to quit just after a few days of practice because it seems like it's never going to get any easier. You just have to push on through and do whatever it takes to not give up.

Something to remember is that practice makes perfect. The more you practice, the more you're exercising your musical muscle and making it stronger. Soon enough, your muscle memory in your fingers will just start putting them in the right spot without you even having to think about it.

A time signature is an easy enough thing to understand, and it will help you out a lot in your musical learning. It tells you how many beats are going to be in a measure. This makes counting everything out much simpler to understand.

If you have never heard of what a time this sure is, now is a good time to learn. Sharps and flats will be noted in the very beginning of the piece. It is nice to know that when you start with a simple song like this, you will probably work mostly in the key of C, in which there are no sharps or flats to worry about at all.

Many people struggle with rhythm because they never learn their note values when they first get started. If you just get to know the whole note, half note, and the quarter note, things become a lot easier from there. You shouldn't try to struggle with 16th notes from the very beginning.

You'll really want to get to know the musical staff as soon as possible. This is the key to figuring out which note you're supposed to play. It's nice to remember that the note names end at G before going back to A, so you don't have to worry about the whole rest of the alphabet.

You are likely to see different symbols in more complex musical pieces. You shouldn't have to worry about those if you are just learning the basics. At the most, you might see a few simple dynamics, maybe some accents, and a few sharps and flats.
