  • c4 = middle 'c'; c3 = one octave below middle 'c'; c5 = one octave above middle 'c'; a4 is concert pitch 'a', 440 Hz.
  • Time values are indicated by the numeric equivalent of the note; a4(4) = a quarter note on the 'a' note above middle 'c'.
  • A 'd' after a note's time value indicates the note is a dotted note; c5(2d) = a dotted half note on the 'c' above middle 'c'.
  • ab4(2t-) | c5(-t4d) = half note of 'a' flat tied across the bar line to a dotted quarter note of 'c'.
  • A forward stroke -- '/' -- between two or more notes indicates those notes are played simultaneously.
