Sharps, Flats, and Enharmonics A.K.A. The Black Keys

Sharps Sharp-raises a pitch a half step (sounds higher) Notation- # The middle of the sharp sign must be in the same location as the note # Note is third space, center of sharp is third space….they must match!

The sharp sign (#) is always placed BEFORE a note when written in the music. The sharp sign (#) is written AFTER the note name, when writing things in English. # Sharps C# Or C-sharp

Sharps # # # # # F# C#G#D#A#

Sharps Individual Practice-complete the worksheet naming sharps

Flat-lowers a pitch a half step (sounds lower) Notation - The middle of the “b” must be in the same location as the note. Flats Note is second space, center of flat is second space….they must match!

C Or C-flat Flats The flat sign ( ) is always placed BEFORE a note when written in the music. The flat sign ( ) is written AFTER the note name, when writing things in English.

Flats A FD GEC

Flats Individual practice-complete the worksheet naming flats

Sharps on the Piano Remember: half-steps are the next closest touching key. Sharps will always be the next closest key to the RIGHT. C C# DF G A D#G#F# A# C C# DF G A D#G#F# A#

Sharps on the Piano E# and B# are different. Moving up a half-step for them means moving to the white key to the right. What are the names of the E# and B# keys normally? EBEBE#B#E#B# FCCF

Enharmonics Enharmonics are different notes that land on the same piano key. B# is the same key as C E# is the same key as F This also means that these different note names will make the same sound.

Flats on the Piano Remember: half-steps are the next closet touching key. Flats will always be the next closest key to the LEFT DEG A BDEG A B EGABEG A BD D

C and F are different Moving down a half-step for them means moving to the white key to the left. What are the names of C and F normally? Flats on the Piano F FCCFC F B B E E C

Enharmonics Enharmonics are different notes that land on the same piano key. C is the same key as B F is the same key as E This also means that these different note names will make the same sound

Enharmonics All names of all keys…lots of enharmonics! DEG A BDEG A B EGABEG A BD D C# D#G#F# A#C# D#G#F# A# CCFCF F CFC E#B#E#B#

Enharmonics Individual practice ◦ Write the name of each note on the line provided ◦ Compare the two notes tee see if they are enharmonics ◦ If they are enharmonics, highlight them yellow
