ABSTRACT:
An educational board game in which music students learn the names of the lines and spaces on the musical staff and their corresponding keys on the keyboard, comprising a folding game board, a key finder, instruction cards, dice and various colored game pieces. The board has a peripheral playing path representing a grand staff. The measures of the grand staff are spaces, each space having several letter notes. A representation of a keyboard is also provided on the board wherein the keys correspond to the letter notes on the grand staff. The players are each given seven playing pieces, each piece representing a musical letter note A-G. The object of the game is to advance each piece around the grand staff, moving the allotted spaces or measures, then ultimately moving the pieces to the corresponding keys on the keyboard. Movement to the keyboard is determined by the corresponding relationship between a playing piece and a letter note on the measure occupied by the playing piece, or the following instructions or other procedures.
