既然這個世界有五線譜,也有六線譜,你兩種都去學,去理解,才是上策。
先來分析一下這兩種樂譜。
五線譜是記錄音高,而六線譜記錄的是在吉他上按的位置。
五線譜記錄更多音樂上的東西?是 (音高,音程,調號和旋律的起伏)
五線譜比六線譜高深?絕對是
五線譜比六線譜好?就不一定是,這只是兩種不同的譜而已。
彈吉他的確很多機會用到六線譜,很方便,簡單易學。也能標上很多吉他專用的技巧和調弦。但吉他音樂只是音樂的一小部分。學懂五線譜的話你能學習更多吉他以外的音樂,能容易和其他樂器溝通。
我並不是說,五線譜比六線譜更高級,但以學音樂而言,你兩懂譜都通曉,而決定不使用五線譜,你是英雄。但如果你不懂,你又不去學,而又說彈吉他不該看五線譜。這種邏輯我無法理解。
對我來說兩種譜最大的差異是,熟練閱讀五線譜後,即使看到新的樂譜時腦海中也會有旋律。六線譜則沒有。
《The Staff and Tablature》
We have the staff and tablature, and if you learn both of them it is ideal.
Let’s take a good look at these two types of music notation.
The staff records the pitch and tab only records the position of each note.
Does the staff record more musical information? — Yes (pitch, intervals and key signature and contours of the voices.)
Is the staff more difficult than tab? — Absolutely!
Is the staff better the tab? — Not really, just different.
When playing guitar, you’ve got a lot of chance to use tab, very easy to use and learn. Also you can notate a lot of guitar techniques such as alternative tunings. But guitar music is only part of music. If you learn how to read the staff, you can learn music more broadly and cooperate with other instruments.
I am not saying the staff is superior to tab, but if you want to learn music broadly, master both of them. Then, if you decided not to use the staff, I’d respect that. But if you don’t understand, and don’t learn, and keep saying guitarists don’t need to look at the staff, I don’t understand that reasoning.
The biggest difference for me is the musical staff allows me to see the melody distinctly, and tab just doesn’t.
