Discover what all those strange symbols on sheet music mean with this hilarious video

I'm adopted but I now know my real Mother and Grandmother were both Associates of the Royal Academy of Music so pretty near concert hall standard. I started playing the piano when I was 3 with the parents who adopted me as my adoptive father was a good player and I have played nearly my whole life. It's wonderful to be able to read even complicated pieces even if you don't have the technical skill to play the piece or read full orchestral scores.

Wish I'd had this instead of "Rudiments and Theory" when I was learning!

So funny.

I could a long time ago. Now I cannot.

Can read music, though a wee bit rusty now, thought this was a real hoot, just sat and listened with a grin on my face.

My music teacher from school would have loved this.

Hoo Haa fun !!

Agree with Christine Weatherford. It's a hoot!

What did he say ? 😄🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼

Very, very funny (comes from someone whose mother was able to put FRVCM after her name - but never did, sadly). The College is no longer a teaching college.

The treble clef was not made correctly. It should touch the first line, not be placed above it.

Learning to read music is just like learning to read a book.Same process...one step at a time. Fun and interesting if taught in a fun manner. Usually a group lesson is better to begin with. Especially helps focus attention and trains ear.

Don't read sheet music...now I know why.

🎼🎶 I've been reading sheet music for 51 years. That video was a real hoot!! 🎶

Hahahhaha
