Sorry new to this. Does sheet music not tell you what scale you’re playing in? Seems like it would be simple to write GMaj scale on the paper for example instead of doing these conversions and figuring out
Thank you for your question. It depends on the piece. Some pieces will say Sonata in G Major, Minuet in D Major. Often though, the piece is not labeled like that. Instead we see the time signature that is written at the beginning of each line, which tells us how to play each note. If instead we had just the key of G Major written, you would still need to know which sharps or flats G Major had in order to play it correctly. I guess the way that music is written, even if you don’t understand how to figure out the key, you can still play the music the correct way by playing the sharps and flats that are written.
@ ok I think I understand what your saying. I think it would just be more convenient for satisfy both parties by leaving in all the sharps and flats into the piece as well just label and name all the pieces of music. Regardless I will practice on this method a try to catch all the patterns. Thank you for responding.
Does it get easier to get used to remembering to play the keys sharps and flats? I always forget that I’m not playing in c major. Should I learn the scales to get used to it?
Hi Esmy, yes it does get easier with more practice. It is good to study the theory and play the scales as well. It will help you to remember which keys have which sharps and flats. You should try memorizing order of sharps and flats so that when you see 3 sharps, you will know right away that it is F# C# G#. The more songs you play with sharps, the easier it will be to remember to play them. I would try practicing easier songs in every key. I know this will take a while, but it will help you become comfortable in those keys. Play the scale for that key before you play the song. You got this!
Thank you! It's very Useful
You’re welcome!!
This video is helpful

plz correct me if i am wrong
if theres a f#
then in every f note we will play f#
and the other notes will remain same
i am beginner
Yes you are correct. If there is an f# in the key signature, you will play only f# for the full piece and the other keys as regular (natural)
Hello respected mam do you take online class.
