A LITTLE PRACTICE, A LITTLE JOY

Little Note Reader

Meet the notes on the staff, then try a friendly reading quiz.

ClefRange

Read from bottom to top

Lines: E4 · G4 · B4 · D5 · F5
Spaces: F4 · A4 · C5 · E5

Moving from a line to the next space moves one letter: C D E F G A B, then repeat. Short extra lines extend the staff for higher or lower notes.

Read the note from its position on the staff. C4 is middle C. The letter names the note; the number tells you its octave.

Natural notes only. Solfège labels use fixed Do: C = Do. Your score is kept only while this page is open.
