Brad Callow Music Lesson and Reviews

The pentagram is the symbol which focuses all the musical script. This is where you write the musical notes and other musical symbols such as bars or formulas to measure. The staff is composed of five horizontal and parallel lines, also equidistant.

These five parallel liner are four spaces between them. These spaces are also located the musical notes. In practice, we say that there are five lines and four spaces These lines and spaces are named from bottom to top, so, for example, further down the line we can name as the first line. A musical pentagam with its lines and spaces designated as described in the theory.

Figure 1. The staff. 5 lines, 4 spaces.

In this musical staff can be added more lines and spaces through what is known as additional lines. Sometimes the notes beyond the scope of the staff, which is why it is necessary to use these additional lines. Musical notes that exceed the staff.

The bass sounds are written in the lower part of the staff. As a musical sound becomes more acute, your letter goes up through the musical staff. On the other hand, it is recommended that the notes exceed four or five lines of the staff.
