    摘要: In one aspect, provided herein is a device for notating a musical composition. The device, in various implementations, is structured so as to be less laborious to notate, easier to read, and more simple to employ in notating, reading, and/or playing the music of a given composition to be composed and/or played. Accordingly, in its most basic form, the device herein disclosed includes a template, upon which template one or more symbols may be notated, where such notation is configured in a manner that more closely relates the note to be played with the mechanical action needed to be performed so as to play that note, such as on an instrument to be or being played.

    摘要: A music system having an asymmetrical keyboard layout and a notation system and method of using same are disclosed. The music system includes an asymmetrical keyboard layout comprising at least one octave. Each octave includes consecutively ascending keys of consecutively alternating first and second colors, respectively, extending throughout the entirety of each octave. The music system also includes a notation system comprising a staff including consecutively ascending and alternating lines and spaces. The consecutively ascending and alternating lines and spaces correspond to the consecutively ascending keys within each octave, respectively. Notes positioned on the lines correspond to keys having the first color, and notes positioned substantially entirely within the spaces correspond to keys having the second color. Embodiments foster a coherent music system that enables a user to learn, read, manipulate, and play music with great understanding and ease, using the asymmetrical keyboard layout and notation system.

    摘要: A display device displays a musical score image where musical notes indicative of individual tones or sounds constituting a music piece are arranged on a time axis and pitch axis. Pitch information indicative of one or more pitches is acquired in response to an operation on a keyboard, and a note matching any one of the one or more pitches indicated by the acquired pitch information is identified from among the notes included in the musical score image. When any note has been identified as matching any one of the one or more pitches indicated by the acquired pitch information, a display style of the matching note is changed. Only when no note has been identified as matching any one of the one or more pitches indicated by the acquired pitch information, a display mode of a portion of the musical score image other than the notes is changed.
