I left piano for a few years now. Forgot how to read some notes. Care to explain it to me please? LOL



The number 88 on top of the treble clef means what liao ah?

and the x beside the C is which key liao ah?

I totally forgot.



and the notes look like a diamond or square stands for what liao ah?

How to play on piano ah?

Educate me please.

Hahahaha.

Thanks in advance!

For the first pic, the number 88 means its bar number 88
As for the x sign, it means double sharp, a semitone higher from C sharp, played as D

As for the second picture I am not sure
I think it is harmonics but I have no idea how you can do that on piano

the diamond thing means play the note normally. as in... ignore what key the piece is in. but ofcause, just tat note

the X is call a double sharp.
is where by a person plays the note 2 semitone higher ignoring the diatonic key of the piece and playing it as it is refering to the note and ignoring all acidental infront.

Simplified, just play the note 2 higher, C play D
G play A
G# play A#
E play F#

oOOo.. thank you thank you!

what is liao ah means?hehehe..sory just curious..

it's chinese accents.

"liao" means "already" into hokkien. i eat dinner liao = i eat dinner already.

when add in "ah", it can be a question, or further "confirm". for example:

you eat dinner liao ah?

i eat already ah.

...

hahahaha! that's so funny!

picture cant be seen liao.

if got bass clef & treble clef together, means piano. cause violin cant play both part.

it could be played on a violin by just playing the treble clef lo

Pictures posted in LYN will be gone in a day?
Sorry I'm kinda new here asking stupid question XD

Anyway as far as i remember it, its a piece with 2 treble clef so I guess its piano

oooooo..hehehhehehe..thnks dude

i think this is a score for electric guitarlar......... coz harmonics are being done on electric guitars or acoustic guitars

i just realize this song is salute d'amour.

most likely for guitar duet, and more suitable for acoustic guitar or electric clean sound (distortion cannot la cause this song so sweet), cause the lowest note is E which is the lowest note on a normal guitar (and guitar read treble clef only i think). Not quite make sense to play with piano as the notes are overlapping. now it can be explained that why there's harmonic notes.

both treble.

And the way the song is arrange, its guitar

X thingy is a double-sharp,8va means an octave higher,i this case means that
the G note and E note is played an octave higher from the original by using harmonics....

and...the 88 most probably means the number of the bar....i thinks this is a guitar duet....
