daijobu Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 This is a photo of some sheet music (Summer from Frozen). I'm a little unsure about the second measure with all the accidentals. Take a look at the first note in the triplet in the base clef...is that C (natural) - D - D#? And what are those 2 large lines that go from the F-Eflat chord up to the B-A chord and back down to low C? Glissando? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollyhock Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I believe the two large lines are only to show that your left hand needs to play the first chord, then move up a bunch to play the next chord, then go back down. At least, that's how I read it, but I'm no expert. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgo95 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) RE: the big lines, the left hand just plays the (lower) B in the chord, which doesn't require any shifting of position. Hope this makes sense. Edited May 26, 2016 by sgo95 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) The slanty lines are simply there to help your eye follow the left hand notes from the bass clef into the treble clef and back down to bass clef. The left hand notes in the treble clef will be the "B" and "A" (they are connected with a downward stem).

DragonFaerie Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Yes, the triplet is written as a C, D natural, and D sharp. The key signature has 4 sharps, so that means the C is sharp, as well as F, G, and D . The first D stays a D since its marked natural. Cant comment on the piano notation. Wouldn't the C be a C natural since the first note of the measure is designated as C natural? Doesn't the natural designation extend throughout the measure? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
