Tips for reading music
Start with landmarks
Learn Middle C, Treble G (2nd line from bottom), and Bass F (4th line). All other notes are found by counting from these.
Lines vs spaces
Notes sit ON a line (the line goes through the notehead) or IN a space (between two lines).
The clef is your key
Treble clef curls around the G line. Bass clef's dots surround the F line. These anchor notes define everything else.
Count by steps
Notes move alphabetically A–G then repeat. Each step up on the staff = one letter up.
Ledger lines
Middle C sits on a short ledger line below treble clef or above bass clef — the bridge between both.
Practice daily
5 minutes a day identifying notes builds muscle memory faster than an hour once a week.
