<p>The Rosetta is in the book. Play notes from tab, say the name of the note, and associate it with the notation.</p>
<p>The rhythmic part of it ....is all math.</p>

<p>Hey Jeff I dabbled in reading about 11 years ago, Took a basic piano class which opened the door then about 6 yeas's ago I started playing the fiddle, and took a beginning strings class at a community collage...there was no getting around not being able to read. It still takes me a while, but brother applied effort and time you will have it. </p>

<p>Hello I am Ron</p>
<p> happy to meet you. There is on this site in the instructional materials a thing that Tim has worked out. It is called the Rosetta Staff. It shows exactly how the standard music notation works for the early banjo.</p>
<p>I think you will find it a big help. Also there is a book available "Early Banjo" that has very good information about this too.</p>
