Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it easier to identify signs by displaying signs themselves which show tempos, loudness and motif in music or their backgrounds in more than one colors different from that of musical notes. CONSTITUTION:In examples of signs, such as fff, fb, f, mf, mp, p, pp, ppp, etc., and examples of crerescendo, decrescendo, etc., when they are displayed in colors, signs indicating loudness or their backgrounds, for example, are indicated as follows: pp is shown in blue, p in light blue, f in light pink, ff in pink. When no color is used, gradation is used. Mental and physical fatigue involved in reading a great staff is lessened, a decline in concentration can be curbed and exercise efficiency is improved markedly.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

[Industrial application] The present invention relates to a method for displaying a display symbol regarding speed, strength, and musical composition written in a musical score.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The musical score of an instrument or song that can produce only one note at a time is composed of individual staffs and is composed of a single melody with a time-sequential arrangement of each note. In this case, it is relatively easy for a player to read the score, and it is easy to concentrate on the performance itself. However, with keyboard instruments such as pianos, many sounds must be played at the same time, and most of the time, the left and right hands play different note patterns. In such a case, reading a note requires a considerable amount of concentration, so that consideration for other display symbols written in the score is neglected, which in turn reduces the ability to concentrate on the performance itself. This problem becomes more serious as the song becomes more complex.

As a teaching material score, there is a conventional example in which the teacher's instructions and notes are written in a different color in the score to clarify the distinction between the score and the teacher's interpretation. It has no relationship. In other words, the reality is that the effective and practical method for making the score itself easy to see has not been developed yet.

[0004]

The musical score of an orchestra or chorus, or the musical score of a piano, etc. is a grand staff consisting of a plurality of staffs, and reading each individual note would require considerable nerves. Attention must also be paid to the numerous designations and symbols written in. In other words, since it requires two powers of concentration, that is, staring at the musical score and concentrating on the performance itself, mental and physical fatigue such as eye strain is great, and it is a serious problem for the performer. . Over time, fatigue increases and concentration decreases. Frequent breaks are required, but recovery takes time even after a break. This was also a serious and serious problem for the persons involved in the performance, which was a decrease in practice efficiency.

An object of the present invention is to reduce eye strain caused by staring at a musical score, and thus to make it easier to concentrate on the performance itself. For that purpose, how to reduce the burden of reading the score becomes the most fundamental and essential technical issue.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The display symbol itself or its background relating to speed, strength, and musical idea written in a musical score is displayed in different shades of color (black in most cases) and shades (thus Pale black). This is the first time that the present invention has been found to facilitate the identification of the position where the symbol is present without staring at the score, and at the same time reduce fatigue.

If the display symbol or the background thereof is displayed in a color different from the color of the note, the identification becomes easier. Furthermore, by using a plurality of appropriately selected colors, it is possible to visually and intuitively identify even the meaning of a symbol without paying too much attention to the symbol itself. It has been found that these can realize further reduction of fatigue and improvement of efficiency.

Similarly, the musical score is stared by displaying the display symbol or the background thereof in the same color tone as the note but with different shades, or by displaying in one or more different colors and with different shades. Without it, the existence of the symbol and its meaning can be easily identified visually. It has been found that these can reduce fatigue and improve efficiency.

[0009]

EXAMPLES Next, examples of the present invention will be shown. 1 to 4 are examples in which the background of symbols is displayed on the screen. Figure 1
It is a display example of fff, ff, f, mf, mp, p, pp, and ppp. FIG. 2 is a display example of crescendo and decrescendo. FIG. 3 is a display example of>. Figure 4
Is a display example of Largo and dolce.

In the case of color display, for example, in the case of a display relating to strength, the symbol itself or the background of the symbol is just a map like pp (blue), p (light blue), f (light pink), ff (pink). It is intuitive and easy to see the selection of colors that reminds us of the depth of the water surface (shading of blue) and the height of the ground (shading of pink). In the case of non-color display, the same effect can be obtained by changing the gray level. Also, regarding the display regarding speed and musical idea, it is effective to appropriately select the color and the shade of the color based on the color psychology within the range of the number of colors and the printing cost.

[0011]

According to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. (1) It is possible to reduce mental and physical fatigue particularly when reading a grand staff. As a result, the degree of concentration is lower than that of the conventional music score, frequent breaks are not required, and the practice efficiency is significantly improved. (2) Since it is possible to eliminate small oversights of symbols and the like that were inevitable in conventional music scores, efficient self-study becomes possible. Furthermore, since the presence of the display symbols can be easily identified visually without gazing at the score, it is not necessary to use extra nerves and it becomes easier to concentrate on the performance itself.
