Playing Piano: Notes and Values Pt. 3

So, at the same frame language right there. So, now you look at this, okay. So, we got treble clef here, okay, this mean it is 4 quarter notes here, okay.

So, now you like “What?” Why is it there is a whole note here? Oh, yeah. Remember, 4 quarter notes. See, 4; 1, 2, 3, 4 are in one whole note. So, wrote this under because this is how you count it.

You go 1, 2, 3, 4, so we are here. Now, if you land the staff from before that is actually called that is an F right there, okay.

So, you hold this on the piano 1, 2, 3, 4, so it would be like,

(Demo)

1, 2, 3, 4, okay. Then you look at the next part and it is going to go. Now look, now we got some quarter note going and see how we do the stance there. This is a real, okay.

Anyway, I am going all the place now, okay. So here is the bar, right here. So, when a line goes like that. I mean, you have already done all the beats in that bar, so now you are going to start a new one. So, that kind of what music goes along.

It goes by bars, bars so there maybe 5 or 6 bars and then, written on the papers. So, it would be like, okay we are going to start a new line and then, start off again. keep going down and then eventually you are run out of a page and then they go to the next page. How really long the piece goes on for.

Okay, so after this bar then we start again 1, 2, 3, 4; 1, 2, 3, 4, okay. So, now we are in a different, we are using different type of note, it is the quarter note. So, there should be one for every beat because there is 4 of them to make up the bar. So, it is all about balancing, how much time is in the bar, okay.

So, we have 1 and that is the G, 2 that is an A, 3 that is a B, 4 that is a C, okay. So, we counted that, it is going to be G, I mean F, G, A,B,C; so just the first five notes starting from half note. okay, so we are looking at that, okay.

So, how that would correspond on the piano is… So, around F right here, so going 1, 2, 3, 4;1, 2, 3, 4,

(Demo)

So, now this is how you change my speed as I change the note. there is 1, 2, 3, 4; 1 2, 3, 4,

(Demo)

Okay, so that is the very basics of it.

Now, if you are going to count 8th note or half note. A half note would actually be, you go 1, 2, 3, 4; there will be a half note here and a half note here. So, if you are going to play that F twice as half note, that would be 1, 2,-- 3, 4; 1, 2, 3, 4.
