Read Sheet Music in 7 MINUTES! (guitar)

Reading sheet music is often one of the biggest challenges beginner guitarists, and advanced guitarists, face when learning. Or they just skip it all together.

This video makes reading sheet music simple. It's approached as a guitarist for guitarists, but is applicable for all musicians using a treble clef. It's a fun, simple, animated approach that will make you able to read sheet music comfortably in just 7 minutes. What else can you do in 7 minutes? Shower? I think I'll pass.

I'd recommend this to guitar players of all levels, from absolutely beginners to the greatest legends, specifically Paul McCartney. Who appears in this video. Thanks Paul. Or anyone who's interested in music theory.

This lesson focuses on the how standard notation accompanies guitar tab, rhythm, melody, practice tips and more!

Thanks to Matt Colbo for helping getting Paul onboard for this one:

Enjoy :)

"If you cannot explain something in simple language, then you do not actually understand it" said Albert Einstein. Lucky for us, we found the only YouTuber who evidently understands music theory. Great stuff bro.👍🏼

When I was a kid, my parents put me in piano, and I even competed and did recitals. I had no idea how to read music- my teacher didn't even teach me. She just got excited that I could copy what she's doing. This video taught me more about reading music than anyone ever has - particularly my music teachers LOL.

I am a failed animator and now as a failed musician, this scratches me right where I itch.

Low key, I’m so glad I took choir before I started playing instruments. It has help with reading sheets super easy. and not to mention, this video also helped me learn how to read sheets, thanks

[fiddygd]

Wow, how did you get the real Paul McCartney in your video?

[Comrade]

Thank you for joining us on this fudge filled journey Mr. McCartney

i can learn music while getting entertained at the same time, lol i love it

Typo at 4:20 going backwards from G, it has G on the line then F in the space below it and then the E is supposed to me on the line but it's under the line in Ds position, FYI for those just learning this could be very confusing. Also at 5:55 it says everything on the F line is sharp, but that's not true. Every F in the music is sharp not just on that one line aka that one octave!
