Today we will work on training our eyes to focus on lines and spaces.
Theory Modules this week is Fruit Lines®
Goal
This module will help you to memorize and read quickly a corresponding note/key name for any line or space of the Bass and Treble staves.
You will be able to grasp music notation at once by immediately recognizing any music note location on any line or space.
Rules
Using the LEFT or RIGHT arrows, move the baskets to catch a note, represented as a fruit or flower bud, with a basket having the corresponding note name.
Green and brown trees represent vertical Treble and Bass staff lines.
Gradually they will change to traditional horizontal thin black lines. Use the SPACE key to make notes fall faster into the correct basket.
You have 90 levels and 10 different representations of the Bass and Treble staves to complete and finish the module.
Computer control keys
Be sure to switch Num Lock off if you use the number pad keys!
LEFT arrow - Move falling notes left or down.
RIGHT arrow - Move falling notes right or up.
Space key - Make note fall faster.
A - Switch the program to Alphabetic (A, B, C ...) note names
I - Switch the program to Italian (Solfeggio: Do, Re, Mi...) note names
Ctr-X - Exit the program
