![]() ![]() If I have said enough to make myself clear, and if you have time, a video discussing this topic would be much appreciated (though I doubt that it would improve my playing!). ![]() Is there a rationale to all this? I certainly recall a friend of mine, who is an organist, looking at a page and saying to me: "Is that little phrase not mispelled?" Are there rules (I am sure that there are!) that can easily be explained? Which note name to you sharpen or flatten when might you write F# rather than G (if that is a sensible question!)? But of course if the note is already sharpened or flattened in the scale, there are added issues of double sharps or flats etc etc. This can result in the Cb, B#, Fb and E# which you mentioned in your previous video. But sometimes (OK, rarely!) I come across a short musical phrase where accidentals occur and of course have to be fitted into the score taking account of the scale of the piece. Although I have quite a reasonable grasp of musical theory, and have written some music for those instruments, I am actually a very poor reader, when it comes to transferring the music from page to eyes to brain to fingers/feet. I play piano, organ (including in a local church for services, just twice per month), and guitar. And, yes, that video does help of course, but my question was subtly different, and I hope I won't waste your time if I explain a little more clearly. In fact I recognised it and realised that I have already seen it, probably when it first came out (I have been watching your videos for many years now.). Say the note names on the Spaces going from the bottom to the top. The notes on the 5 lines are E, G, B, D, & F. The notes on the 4 spaces are F, A, C, & E. The Treble Clef contains 5 lines and 4 spaces in it, and each of these lines and spaces has a specific note that is located there. ![]() I have viewed that video as you suggested. Step 2: The Treble Clef and Notes in the Treble Clef. His videos, which have been viewed by millions, are engaging, entertaining, informative, and sure to enhance the knowledge, skills, and overall playing experience of pianists from beginners to the most advanced. Robert maintains a vibrant online presence, with countless videos on YouTube and through Virtual Sheet Music. In this creative endeavor, Robert dresses in period costumes and plays historic instruments, from his own collection, to tell the story of the piano over time to a wide variety of audiences - not just piano enthusiasts. His most unique performance experience, however, is his Living Piano: Journey Through Time. He performs with symphony orchestras, at arts festivals, for music teachers' associations, at museums, and on college campuses. Robert studied piano and French horn at New York City's Manhattan School of Music, and he also received a degree in piano performance from Indiana University. Music is "all in the family" for Robert, with his father, Morton, a concert pianist his sister, Coren, a pianist as well his wife, Florence, an accomplished flutist and his daughter, Jennifer, a violinist of great acclaim. Not only does he play and teach with proficiency and passion, but he also knows just about everything there is to know about pianos - from their construction to their history. Robert Estrin is a pianist who truly lives his instrument. ![]()
