You can use this information to configure the keyboard and
play the song at its best. This manual tells you how to select
sound, rhythm and tempo.
The song also indicates:
EASY CHORD: the easy
chords for song accom-
paniment
CLASSIC CHORD: the
classic chords for song
accompaniment
The song is marked by a continuous grey strip that
indicates the numbers used to play the melody with
your right hand. Each key must be pressed for some
time, depending on the distance that separates each
number on the grey strip from the next.
Basically, above the numbers you will notice a sequence
of alternating black and grey sections within the grey
strip. The distance between one black section and
another represents the unit of musical time known as
“beat”, which corresponds to the movement of the
metronome pointer from one end to the other. Every
black and grey section represents a half “beat”.
The instructions (meaning squares with letters) are
found under this strip in order to use your left hand to
play the accompaniment chords.
All musical notes of the song, which use classical wor-
ding, are under the grey strip.
STAVE STRIP
Apply the stave strip supplied to identify the notes on the
keyboard and on the stave. The names of the notes are
written in the international notation system.
HOW TO PLAY THE SONG IN EASY MODE
MELODY
Numbers 1 to 15 on the stave strip indicate the keys to play
a melody with the easy musical scores at the end of this
manual.
Each note corresponds to a number on the grey strip.
To play the melody, read the sequence of numbers contai-
ned in the grey band and press, one after the other, the
white keys which correspond to the same numbers on the
strip above the keyboard. The black keys correspond to the
numbers for example on the music method grey band fol-
lowed by the “+”. The black key after white key 1 correspon-
ds to the symbol 1+.
Now that you know which key corresponds to which note,
try and play the tune following the numbers on the grey
strip.
CHORDS
The letters on the stave strip indicate the name of the notes
in order to compose a chord in EASY CHORD (from C1 to
F#2) and CLASSIC CHORD mode (from C1 to F#2) (refer to
the relative section).
To use accompaniment, press each chord with EASY CHORD
or CLASSIC CHORD mode for the time indicated by the line
next to the letter that represents the chord, until you come
to the next one.
