  1. MEN’S TRAININGLearning to LEAD IN SONG Presented at the Newton church of Christ 2008 Lesson Four

  2. Understanding the Key Beat Patterns • These are the Simple BEAT PATTERNS of Song Leading

  3. Understanding the Key of the Song The Chromatic Scale of a Pitch Pipe: • The Range: • The range of this pitch pipe is from C below the treble staff to the C found on the third space of the treble staff. • The “Do” position is given in twelve different keys. • All the keys are found in our songbook.

  4. Understanding the Key of the Song • Key Signature: • The group of sharps or flats at the beginning of a song is the key signature. This indicates the key of the song. For instance, if a key signature contains three flats, the flats are positioned on B, E, and A. This means that all B's E's, and A's in the song are flatted without requiring the flat symbol on each note. The number of the sharps or flats determines the key. • Flats: The next to last flat is your key. • Number of Flats: 1 2 3 4 5 6 • Key of Song: F B E A D G • The flats can be remembered by this: • “Fat Boys Eat Apples Dropped Green.”

  5. Understanding the Key of the Song • Key Signature: • The group of sharps or flats at the beginning of a song is the key signature. This indicates the key of the song. For instance, if a key signature contains three flats, the flats are positioned on B, E, and A. This means that all B's E's, and A's in the song are flatted without requiring the flat symbol on each note. The number of the sharps or flats determines the key. • Sharps: • Find Furthest sharp to right – go up half a step and that is your key. • Number of Sharps: 1 2 3 4 5 6 • Key of Song: G D A E B F • The sharps can be remembered by: • “Go Down And Eat Big Fish”

  6. Understanding the Key of the Song • You will have to remember which ones are sharped or flatted. • (Note that the key of F-sharp and G-flat is the same key). • Also, no sharps or flats in the key signature is the key of C. • Another way to determine the key is to scan through the first score and find the note with the "do“ shape, explained later. That is the key note.

  7. Understanding the Key Harmony of the Song • Practice exercise: • Harmony is based on the Triad • To understand the TRIAD (this is 1/3 and 1/5 above the starting key. – Do, Mi, So. • EXAMPLE THE KEY is C: • Do = C • Mi = E • So = G • Practice – the Key of G • Do = • Mi = • So =
