Tim, I am looking forward to your future lesson(s) on the topic, "Sight Reading". The strategies you presented in today's video is definitely help to strengthen my knowledge of music theory and inspire me to move forward in practicing the piano. Excellent job! 🎶
Thanks for that, it's always good to go over these things. I do treble clef FACE and Every Good Bod Deserves Favour. Bass , ALL Cows Eat Grass and Great Big Dogs Frighten Animals. I know the ledger line below the bass clef is E and 2nd one down is C, and 1st line above the bass clef is C 2nd line is E, I only just realised they are a mirror image of each other. C E on top E C below the bass clef! 😊
I'm ecstatic!! I struggled to read sheet music in the school jazz band so I abandoned it after I graduated but those tricks about the even intervals not matching and the odd intervals matching is mindblowing with how simple it is.
So I've apparently been at level 4, but recognizing intervals just became much easier thanks to your even/odd (not matching/matching) technique! I'm pretty sure this is exactly what I needed to progress further!
Very good strategies. Thank you! I saw an interesting system in China a while back where you have 2 note lines in between the staffs, A and C. That made both clefs have the same note in the same position, F the top line in both clefs and E the bottom line. I always struggled with the bass clef since I first learned guitar that only used the treble.
To answer your question, yes. A sightreading video would be very helpful. I am trying to sightread Bach chorals and they are a challenge. But satisfying. I'm just starting out, and it has helped bunches for other music.
@@LessonsOnTheWeb Speaking of Bach, everyone says he's the Old Testament, and so many musicians study him to get a firm basis. You should regularly run your video analysis on Bach pieces for beginners. It got me started on the right path.
Hey I was just watching this, very usefull for me as a beginer! I also noticed an error at 7:45, the top note is C so the bottom note got to be an E, instead of D
lol i go back to this video sometimes, when I feel like i am struggling with sight reading, in my 1 1/2 year of music theory/ piano journey and I now understand lol that c e g, b d f a , is just stacked thirds XC lol it's funny its called the sequencing technique, but its cute none the less. however , people learn .
Thanks for video! I do sight-reading 50 days but still on level one😂 So now i will trying your method and learn every single notes with mnemonics.) Because every good boy really deserve fries.😂
Wow that ledger line trick is going to change the game for my sight reading, especially for bass clef. I can’t believe I never put two and two together.
Couple questions: How long should it take for me to learn a song, fresh start to finish from the sheet? How long will it take before I can read the sheet and play fluently as opposed to my "double h" level, hesitate and hunt?
Hi Tim - thank you for this. Would you be able to do a segment for students like myself, who have had years of lessons and can play advanced pieces, but have a sight reading level of beginner? What are your recommendations for those of us who have fallen through the “sight reading cracks” ?? 😂
If you play piano you don't need mnemonics at all. Just place your left 5th finger on middle E then skip 1 white key for each other 4 fingers and baam, you have your key references for each note on the lines.
I learned that too but often confused the two when I was first learning since they are similar. So I came up with "Great Burritos Don't Flop About" for the bass cleft. 😅
This approach overloads the memory with superficial disjointed knowledge, with no understanding of the repeating underlying structure. This is not a good approach. THE CYCLE OF THIRDS is the only thing we need to learn - one structure - one memonic, one understanding for all clefs, all lines on or off stave, all intervals.

Great to hear. I'll start working on that sight reading lesson then :)

Tim that was really helpful. I am 75 and fighting for speedy notes
Amazing Tim!!! Please make an indepth sight reading lesson❤
Yes please make a lesson on sight reading Tim!

For a while now ive been playing piano by ear and guitar decently well, this helped a lot thank you so much
Thanks so much for this! I took a break from piano atleast a year back and got pretty rusty at reading sheet music. This helped a ton!
I’ve just learnt more in just the first half of this video than I have in the last 6 months of .. my piano app! Thank you..oh so much!
You are welcome! Glad to hear you found the lesson helpful.
Your way of giving the lessons is perfect!! A deeper insight in sight reading would be amazing!!! Thank you.
please make a 2 hours+ video expanding this content and more emphasis and depth on it. thanks
Lecheile music taught me to think of the repeating pattern as "jibidy face" GBD FACE. I find it easy to go forward or back using it.
Very good strategies. Thank you!

I missed this before. Thank you so much!
Great lessons and tips.
Great Big Dogs From Alaska. Thanks for the ledger line help, It really helps to visualize.
Thanks
Thanks for video!
I do sight-reading 50 days but still on level one😂
So now i will trying your method and learn every single notes with mnemonics.) Because every good boy really deserve fries.😂
Excellent video. Very helpful. 😊

I didn't know that one for years! Glad you found it helpful.
At 08.13 you mixed up E and G the seconde way through😜 but I can relate. Great Video!🎉
Thanks for pointing that out! Glad you enjoyed the lesson.

Awesome video thanks a lot
The best lesson❤
this is G-R=E-A=T!
Great video! Yes please do a video on sight reading
Okay you got it!
Gosh! amazing vid as always 😁
Hi Tim - thank you for this. Would you be able to do a segment for students like myself, who have had years of lessons and can play advanced pieces, but have a sight reading level of beginner? What are your recommendations for those of us who have fallen through the “sight reading cracks” ?? 😂
Thanks 👍
You're welcome!
Thank you sir for explain lizer line
You're welcome. Glad you found it helpful.
@@LessonsOnTheWeb sir I need to learn more from you 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
In one of your lessons you recommend a metronome. Would you be will to share the branch you have please?
Back in the 90’s I was taught “Every Good Boy Does Fine” and “Good Boys Do Fine Always”
Radical. 👊
Brad Harrison actually recommends *NOT* using mnemonics for note names because, and I quote, "it obscures the simple pattern of note names."
Yes please
If you play piano you don't need mnemonics at all. Just place your left 5th finger on middle E then skip 1 white key for each other 4 fingers and baam, you have your key references for each note on the lines.
what website/app do you use to put up notes into a sheet
Sight reading yes please
I’m proud I recognized the Invention in D min 0:00. But that is because I’ve been learning it for for 3 weeks now 😅
Nice! That is a fun one to play once you get it learned.
Thanx for the lesson but l would like to understand intervals better and reading the notes faster
Ok here you go! ruclips.net/video/NwpAWbECpvg/видео.html
What does match mean?
I was taught “every good boy does fine” and “good boys do fine always”
I've heard that one before. Thanks for sharing!
I learned that too but often confused the two when I was first learning since they are similar. So I came up with "Great Burritos Don't Flop About" for the bass cleft. 😅
Great lesson Tim. Great to hear from you again!
@@Sont256 Thanks Sonia! Glad you liked the lesson.
The English word is mnemonic (pronounced knee-Mon-ic)
I was taught "EAT GOOD BUT DONT FART" 💀
STUDENTS, I highly recommend you check out this lesson next. (Rhythm Patterns you are Messing Up)
bit.ly/rhythmpatterns2
I prefer simple: GiBiDi FACE. Not freaking long essays.
I was taught every good boy does fine, face, girls buy diamonds from Australia and all cows emit gas (don’t ask)
I learned "favor", not "fries."
That works too!
i learned “fruit” lol
I hate ledger line notes.
On the bass clef lines I was taught “Grizzly Bears Don’t Fly Airplanes”
That one is awesome!
mine was “great birds don’t fly away” i didn’t realise people used different rhymes lol
