    anyone know why in the book it only has the sharps for the first 2 eighths notes but it is played here as all sharps?

    • @55springflower
      @55springflower 4 роки тому +56

      On page 54 at the top in red it says: “when a sharp appears before a note, it applies to that note for the rest of the measure”. So the first eighth note with a sharp is in its own measure. The second eighth note has a sharp in front of D so in that measure all the D’s now need to be D sharp. When you enter the next measure that resets and you go back to normal D notes.

    Question: i thought the eight notes that goes back and forth (E and D#) go from E and D# to E and D after 2 times cause only 2 of the notes has a # sign in them. how do i know that the 3 notes after them should also be played with d# when theres no # infront of them?
    is it the Slur?

    • @TheSalosful
      @TheSalosful 6 місяців тому

      +FroztiProductions Hi! According to page 33 (_Money Can't Buy Ev'rything!_) "when a sharp (#) appears before a note, it applies to that note for the rest of the measure". A natural sign (♮) cancels a sharp or flat.
