Beethoven - Ode to Joy Theme in 13 Keys - Demo - (Key Map Tablature) by Ludwig van Beethoven Piano Method - Digital Sheet Music

By Ludwig van Beethoven

This is a demo of the Ode to Joy theme in all 13 major keys. Each page contains a 2-voice arrangement of the first 8 measures of the piece in a different key. This unit demonstrates how easily one can play in any key, when the music is notated on a key map tablature.This piece is notated on a vertically oriented tablature called a "key map." Key maps are intended to SHOW you (visually) which keys to play by matching (mapping) the locations of the keys on the keyboard. >>> The group of 12 keys from Middle C up to B form what we call the green "Octave Group". (There are 7 of these identical groups on the piano distinguished by their colors and locations.) The key map staff is based on an octave group of the keyboard. For each key map octave group, the 5 vertical lines of the staff stand for the 5 matching black KEYS. >>> Staff lines ARE SPACED to match the horizontal spacing of the black keys on the keyboard The notes for black keys are placed ON these staff lines. The notes for the white keys are placed BETWEEN the lines. >>> The notes of a key map move to the left and right to indicate change in PITCH and down the page to indicate the passing of TIME (rhythm). The vertical length of each note is proportional to the time (in beats) that the sound requires.If you want to know more about this beautiful key map notation, you might consider reviewing our article describing how this notation works, entitled: "Getting Started With Key Maps for the Piano". It contains an explanation of how key maps work and includes a number of examples. 16 pages. It is promotionally priced at only $1.99. (Actually, you can read the fist few pages simply by going to the "look inside" pages of the article.)
