Contents

Detailed instructions for creating music notation using the computer keyboard in MuseScore for four examples are given below.

  • Exercise 1: Note Entry and Lyrics
Basic note and lyric entry. You may need to use Ctrl+↑/↓ to transpose the notes by an octave at the start of the note entry.
  • Exercise 2: Octaves, Slurs, Fingerings and Text
A demonstration of how to add fingerings, slurs as well as dealing more with octave transposition during data entry on the computer keyboard.
  • Exercise 3: Chords
A demonstration of how to enter chords. Chords can also be entered by interval: Shft plus a number will add a diatonic interval below the current note in a chord. Alt plus a number will add a diatonic interval above the current note in a chord.
  • Exercise 4: Upper and Lower Voices
A demonstration of how to place multiple voices onto a single staff.
