ABSTRACT:
A musical notation system which displays the seven notes of any chosen scale on a staff of eight lines and seven spaces, which are typically arranged in a vertical fashion, and which is a graphical representation of a keyboard. No sharps or flats are used to designate a key, but rather only the valid notes of any particular diatonic scale are provided with positions on the staff. Notations which indicate octaves, beats per measure, the selected Key and the mode are all provided. Symbols for timbre, loudness, duration of notes and rests are the same as conventional music notations.
