Fredrick Noad help
Not sure if i should ask this
But Would it be wrong to write in the letter of the notes for easier readability. Tried it on one exercise and got it down in a snap, but was cathing my royal arse before

I'd be delighted to offer an opinion…but I haven't a clue what on earth you're talking about! (LOL)

His exercises is laid out in standard notation.
Example where he has a note that you know is a c, you write a c above the note.

Wrong as in moral outrage? Probably not. Helpful? Like training wheels on a bike. When do you plan on losing them?

No shame if it helps you.

I understand why (you said in another thread that you're just learning to read standard notation), so go ahead. Notes on the staff should be easy enough after a week or two of steady practice, and maybe you'll want to limit it to notes above and below the staff. The goal with shorter pieces such as those in Noad's book, is to memorize the music, so do whatever it takes.

With age comes wisdom, what they failed to mention is as you get old it get harder to remember things.
I am virtually sorry that i did not start this quest at least 40 years ago. I can read standart notation but very slowly. My fingers know where abcdefg is on the first 3 frets. Its useless for me to try and memorise even the short pieces, in 15 minutes its gone. But i am determined

You don't have to memorize the whole piece at once. Just knowing the firstq few measures is a start, and see how far you can go from there. Some professional classical guitarists have sheet music on stage quite often. More than likely it's used in case they get lost, or are afraid they'll get lost. A security blanket.

Decided not to go the easy way, will continue to force read staff notes.

however, i think the exercise of writing them in is a useful and productive way to learn them. so one idea i would suggest is to make a photocopy of one of the pieces and then write in all the notes. you may want to do that more than once for practice. just a thought. |

As a rank beginner go for it.... You can slowly stop down the road. Take a moment every day and read the notes out loud on a piece with no labels.

I am a bit confused.
Page 58 Waltz It has repeat signs every 8 bars, but yet when i listen to the cd, F. Noad does not repeat, he plays it to the end. Even in Andantino on page 59, again no repeat, he plays it straight to the end. Am i missing something here ?

good question. the repeats are optional.

So we use repeats when we feel like, depending on the groove at the time we are playing the piece.

if you do play the repeats, it would also be typical to somehow vary the timbre of each repeat (e.g. play closer to the bridge). |
