Eccles Sonata in G Minor Tenor Clef

PRUNEFACE · #1 12-14-2009, 12:57 PM

Any tips or advice for learning tenor clef? I can already read treble and bass, so if you guys have any tips that would be helpful. I plan on beginning work on the piece in the next day or so.

Thanks

Read a lot of tenor clef, there's is not much solution. Just take any parts, and say the notes names like if they were in tenor clef.

Reading tenor clef is no different than reading bass or treble. Learn it in the same way you did bass and treble. Just get used to reading it. Make up some cheesy acronym to remember the names of the lines and spaces if you need to.

I've already had great luck with beginning to learn to read it -I've almost got the first movement (Largo) down.

For a long time I just read Tenor clef as bass, except up a fifth.

I noticed this.... I'm trying to learn the notes by name.
