A Brief Introduction to Music Theory - Notes

  Although theory is not essential, it helps to understand how the music you play works at an intuitive level. Without going into anything too complex, this post outlines the basics on notes, followed by keys and chords – the main components in music. Anyone who wishes to someday play an instrument the right way, before need to have these basics in your mind:

Music is the art of expressing the various affections of our feelings through the sound. 
Sound is a propagating acoustic vibration by sound waves. 
The sound has four parameters;
Height: dividing the sound into bass, midrange and treble; 
Duration: The time that sounds the sound; 
Intensity: is the undergraduate loudness; 
Tone: is the special feature of each sound.

1) After all,What Are Notes?

   Notes are the individual pitches that you hear when you pluck a single guitar string, and are the smallest units in music, and therefore, are symbols we use to represent sounds. Music comprises of sequences of notes played simultaneously at a certain speed. There are altogether 12 distinct notes in music. and these notes have names:

  

C#/Db

D

D#/Eb

E

F

F#/Gb

G

G#/Ab

A

A#/Bb

B

Because the above series may be confusing, it helps to look at them on a piano:

【The black notes are referred to by the white notes around them】

Instead of having 12 names to remember we only have to remember the white notes – 7 notes. All 12 notes repeat over and over again, at higher or lower pitches, in the same sequence. Therefore, after the last B of the sequence comes another C but at a higher pitch than the previous C. Then comes a C#, D, D# and so on. The difference between a normal C and the next higher C is called an octave.
