[music] Reading lesson needed
Posted by: cwstairs <cwstairs@...>
I just got handed a part written out note for note, except part way through the composer (a friend of mine) just wrote 4 vertical lines in each measure (which is in 4/4) and wrote chords over the bar, like what I'm used to EXCEPT one of the chords says "D then a triangle, then 9. I'm pretty clear on what to do with the D and it's 9th, but what does the triangle mean? I'm thinking 5th, but I don't want to ask him 'cause then he'll know what an ear playin' loser I really am!! Really, I'll ask him, but I would rather have a bass player's explanation than a jazz infested sax player at this point. Please make it as simple as possible – remember, there are only 5 strings on a bass just to make it easier.
