WHAT ARE NOTES?
Musical notes are symbols that represent sounds of different pitches in music. These notes
help musicians play melodies and harmonies accurately. Each note has a specific pitch, which
determines how high or low the sound is.
Why are Notes Important?
Notes form the foundation of music composition.
They allow musicians to read, write, and perform music.
Notes define the melody and harmony of a song.
THE MUSICAL ALPHABET
Music uses a special alphabet consisting of seven letters: A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. Once we reach G,
the cycle repeats back to A.
Example:
The note after G is A again, but at a higher pitch.
The sequence continues as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, A, B, and so on.
