Post by John Culjak on December 25, 2012

I'm a bit confused.... In the "First and Second Ending" example you are playing two E notes but I don't see how they correspond with the two written E notes (in the first measure). If middle C ( the C between the two clefs) is C4 than I see you've written down E5 (in the treble clef) and E3 (in the bass clef). But you play them only an octave apart (E3 and E4?). Do I got this right? It seems that you should be playing them two octaves apart.

Bar Lines & Measures

Bar lines separate music into measures.
Double bar lines indicate the end of a piece of music.
A repeat sign contains two dots next to a bar line, and indicates the repetition of the specified measures.
