  1. Musicians use this to read music, and it is described in two words. It is extremely important for instrumentalists to learn. It is also the title of this crossword puzzle.
  2. A specific clef that is used by cellists, bassists, bassoonists, trombones, and other low register instruments.
  3. Something that orchestral musicians do with their instruments before the concert. It also takes a while for a harp player to do this task. In fact, it takes about 30 minutes for a beginner harpist to do this.
  4. The specific dynamic that means “loud.” The word’s origin is Italian, and it is often labeled as a swirly “F” in the middle of the grand staff (a staff that ties the treble and bass clef to one instrument). It looks extremely similar to this: f.
  5. Two words that are a specific note found while reading music. It has a filled-in head and a stem with no flag. It is one of the first notes taught when learning music theory.
  6. Something musicians and theory students alike ask for when they are unable to figure something out on their own. Most often, beginners to music theory become frustrated and request this from their teachers. Very often, music players need to ask for this more than they do. In fact, at this very moment, a particular harpist needs this a lot.
  7. these two words are a note that is held out for four beats. It looks almost identical to an “O.” It has no stem or flag and is one of the longest-held notes that a musician will ever see or play.
  8. These two words are a little more advanced in the music theory world. They can be described with sharps and flats. An example of this would be “The Key of C Major; The Key of F Major."
  9. This is another word for “bar” that alludes to a particular played tempo that has a certain number of beats. When composers (sheet music writers) write their compositions, they break them into smaller pieces, making them easier to read (MasterClass staff).
  10. This word is often used to give musicians a chance to “breathe” and stop for a very short period of time. It is found in measures, and musicians stop playing for a whole, half, a quarter, an eighth, etc... of a measure.
  11. A word that indicates whether to be loud or soft between measures or phrases in written music pieces. It makes the music more colorful and interesting as well as expressive. This single word categorizes forte and pianissimo into a single group.
  12. Something that a conductor uses to read the music as they conduct. The entirety of all the orchestral parts is found on this. Most modern-day composers are able to create this on a computer using specific software. Before technology, composers had to hand-write this.
  13. Beginners to music theory use this term to remember how to read the notes for the treble clef. A hint to this word: "The treble clef and the spaces between the lines."
Down
  1. These two words are really important to reading music. Musicians identify it as the specific signature after the treble clef. It is also mostly seen as a fraction looking like this: 4/4, ¾, and 6/8.
  2. A particular piece of music that features a specified instrument. Many times, the instrumentalist has a solo in the middle of the song with the orchestra playing “behind,” or even not playing at all.
  3. these two words are a specific musical note. This note is held out for two beats. It has a stem but not a filled-in head.
  4. An individual that writes music, specifically sheet music. During the classical era, some of the most famous ________'s include Bach, Haydn, and Mozart. These songwriters had no choice but to write their works by hand.
  5. This word has nothing to do with music, but is, in fact, an emotion felt with most new music theory students. Another word for this emotion would be mad, frustrated, and annoyed.
  6. An individual instrument that is referred to when helping students learn music theory. In America, it is counted as the most popular instrument and is also known for being able to play both the melody and harmony simultaneously. Musicians that play this instrument classically have to read both treble and bass clef--at the same time!
  7. This term is very similar to a chord. Like a chord, it is constructed of three tones, root, third, and fifth (for excample, in a C-Chord, the notes used would be C[root], E[third], and G[fifth]). However, this word is different from a chord because chords can be more than three notes or tones whereas ____s cannot.
  8. A variety of musicians who play a diversity of instruments together in harmony to make a splendid sound. Almost every type of instrument has a different part to play in this with one master-mind (the conductor) conducting the multitude of instrumentalists.
  9. This is a specific clef (Musicians use the various clefs for the purpose of being able to tell what notes are which lines for the staff) that is also known as the “G” clef. Most higher register instruments have to read this clef including violinists, harpists, piano players, flutists, clarinetists, and most brass players.
  10. This is not a real word, but it is the notes of the lines for the treble clef. Another hint for this: "Every Good Boy Does Fine."
  11. Three to four notes played together simultaneously. It can come in all shapes and sizes. This also has different positions, which can include root position, first inversion, and second inversion.
  12. A dynamic that has an Italian origin. In English, the word means “very softly” and starts with a “P.” In music, It looks extremely similar to this: PP.
