Octave markerThe clef at beginning of each line is substituted by a number inside a small circle: the octave marker. The octave marker indicates in which octave is
As you can see, the position of C is always the same regardless of the octave. The staff in the Leszer notation has four instead of five lines and its composed of two thick lines and two thin lines. The thick lines are the F-lines: a note over one thick line is always an F. The thin lines are the C-lines: a note resting over he inferior thin line of a group of two thin lines is always a C.
This is a comparison between the traditional notation (Figure 1) and the leszer notation (Figure 2). Note how the relative position of the notes does not depend anymore on the clef. |
