ABSTRACT:
An educational method and apparatus for teaching reading of music to a musical instrument user. One display case is utilized with a treble clef indicia. Another display case is utilized with a base clef indicia. Each case contains unlabeled compartments arranged to represent lines and spaces of the base and treble clefs. Utilizing the prinicpal of memory association in conjunction with flash cards, each note of the scale is represented on a flash card in the form of a noun which begins with the letter for the note it represents. A note location chart is used initially by the user to place each of the flash cards in the compartments of each display case. A fixed number of cards are used. The time to remove each of the cards from a display case is clocked as an audio tape verbally indicates the memory aid, the name of the note and the sound of the note. A card is removed each time a note is generated, the exercise being clocked until all of the cards are removed from a case.
