The simple method of notating musical notation is as follows:
1. Staff notation, obviously this is by far the most accurate and convenient notation method. So most music workers are using this notation method. Staff notation is relatively intuitive and can clearly mark the pitch and length of sounds, making it easier to perform and sing. You can directly learn the musical notation. Many people around me cannot read simple musical notation and can only read the musical notation.
2. Simplified musical notation, invented by the French. Use numbers instead of notes for marking. This kind of music notation is more helpful for singing, and it belongs to the first tune notation method. It was originally used to teach singing to believers who did not know music notation. It simplifies the concept of key on the staff, because the singer usually does not think about the key himself, it is provided by the accompanist, so the inventor believes that this is something the singer does not need to know.
Of course simplified musical notation can mark keys, but this is not its most essential function. It is very tiring to read simplified musical notation when playing an instrument, because it is the first key notation and you have to always change to the correct key in your mind, which is very inconvenient.
3. Literary notation. Literal notation is used in many special musical instruments and is divided into many different categories. The most commonly used text notation is percussion music, and Chinese guqin music also belongs to special text notation. I have a teacher who still insists that if you want to learn Guqin, you must learn Jianzi Pu. I've learned a little bit of that stuff before, and it makes me feel dizzy, like reading a book from heaven.
In Chinese percussion, there is the so-called Gong and Drum Sutra, which is a kind of text score that can be recited, which is quite interesting. Although percussionists born in majors basically read single-line music (because most percussion instruments have no pitch and only use one line to mark the rhythm), the old masters of the troupe still use gongs and drums. This kind of written music does not even need to be recorded, it can be transmitted orally.
