Need Help --- S.O.S    22:56 on Tuesday, August 14, 2007 Vote for this post Vote against this post 0 votes

Hey friends, how's it going? Well, I have a few questions regarding sheet music. I have included diagrams to make my questions clearer.

Question 1:

http://img477.imageshack.us/img477/6531/clipid6.jpg

In the above short clip, I know the curve over the two notes means you must blend the notes. When I blend the notes, what will be the results?
(I'm just dicussing the two chords with the curve line over them)
So I'm guess the notes will be

'F+A+E' And 'E+G+C#'

As you can see, I stepped down the pitch. Am I doing it the correct way?
--------------------------------------------------

Question 2:

In the above clip, I know the '>' symbol means to go gradually softer on the notes it appear over.

Do I go gradually softer per measure like this?

OR, do I keep going softer as I go down the line like this?

The bottom notes of the chords are still F and A; only the top note has changed from E to D. Sorry if that didn't answer your question, but I'm not quite sure what you're asking.
As for the second question, this, >, is an accent mark. It means to place emphasis on that note; in other words, to play it a bit more loudly.

Question 1

In that bar the F and A are only played 5 times as the 6th f and A is held on from the 5th note.

play the F,A AND E together with the fingering 1,2 and 5 and just move your down to the D with your 4th finger not playing that F and A again this is called tied notes you only play it once the The D will be played as a seperate not but will blen in with the F and A from the previous note.

Question 2
the > is an accent and the dot is stacatto so put more emphasis on the notes that have > above the this is so they sound out more like an emphasis on the note

i hope this helps
Blessings
Steve

this may help too the 1st note is 1 beat the 2nd set of notes is tied add the 2 beats together is 2 beats the 2nd note is not played but held.

the next note it a half beat the next 2 are 2 half beats which makes up 1 beat tied

Thanks guy, I didn't know I had to hold the F and A notes for the specified time. I was always playing it as separate notes. Makes sense now.

That is just a slur. It isn't a tie. If it were, there would be curved lines connecting each note: one from the first F to the second, and one from the first A to the next. I'd put up an example, but I don't know how to post images.

Oh, so tie has to do with same pitch and slurs has to do with different pitch ...

now in this case

The slurred notes would be played like E and D# instead of E and D ... am I correct?
