key signature
This is a key signature. It indicates accidentals to be placed on the notes that follow.
From a key signature, you can determine which note is DO.
Accidentals
on the staff
Accidentals were introduced in the keyboard lesson.
Flats lower the note a half step, and sharps raise the note a half step.
Review the keyboard lesson if this is not familiar.
Click on the keys
for the notes above
positioning the accidental
horizontally
When an accidental is on a note, the accidental is placed
just to the left of the note head. When an accidental is
on a letter, it is placed to the right of the letter, like one
would say it ‘G sharp’.
positioning the accidental
vertically
To line up accidentals vertically on the staff, place the center
of the accidental exactly on the line or space intended.
The center of each is marked with a dot: for the sharp,
think of it as the center of the tic-tac-do box.
For the flat, think of it as the center of the rounded enclosed part.
Key Signatures
indicate which accidentals to place on the notes
In this example, the key signature has one sharp.
The center of the sharp is on the note F, so all Fs are played F#.
All octaves receive the accidentals
indicated in the key signatures
the lower F also becomes F#
