When we see them, we can then trace the journey from the first note to the last.<\/p>\n<p>As a best practice, we can look up any words or symbols we do not yet know. This way, we keep the big picture in mind from the start, and our musical vocabulary expands.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click Here<\/a> to download a PDF of the musical navigation symbols and terms.<\/p>\n<h3>Barlines in Music<\/h3>\n<p>Barlines divide the music into small sections of a pre-determined number of beats. The barlines organize the music on the page only. They do not suggest that we do anything or take any action.<\/p>\n<p>In guitar practice, it\u2019s a good habit to practice in sections that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/cross-bar-line\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">extend one note past a barline<\/a>. This sounds more musical and better reflects what the composer had in mind.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-200942\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-1-barline.jpg\" alt=\"barline measure in music\" width=\"300\" height=\"166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-1-barline.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-1-barline-100x55.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Repeat Signs<\/h3>\n<p>These symbols tell us to play the enclosed material twice. After we play through to the second repeat sign, we return to the first sign and go forward again.<\/p>\n<p>Normally, we only repeat once. And if we play the section again later in the piece, we often do not observe the repeat signs.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-200943\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-2-repeats.jpg\" alt=\"repeats in music\" width=\"300\" height=\"138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-2-repeats.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-2-repeats-100x46.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>New Section Barline<\/h3>\n<p>The thin double barline denotes a new section in the music. This can help in our mental representation of the music. We can practice the sections separately, then work on the transitions and combine them.<\/p>\n<p>This symbol, like the ordinary barline, does not suggest any action. Instead, it helps to organize the music on the page and make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/musical-form\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the musical form<\/a>\u00a0more clear.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-200944\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-3-new-section.jpg\" alt=\"new section barline\" width=\"300\" height=\"156\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-3-new-section.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-3-new-section-100x52.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Final Barline<\/h3>\n<p>The thick double line is the final barline. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/final-chords\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">This marks the end of the piece<\/a>.

It is music that finishes the piece (or movement, in a larger work). The word \u201ccoda\u201d comes from the Latin cauda, for \u201ctail.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The coda symbol marks this section. It does not instruct us to take any action. But other instructional symbols may point to it, so it needs to be marked.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-200946\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-5-coda.jpg\" alt=\"coda symbol in music\" width=\"600\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-5-coda.jpg 600w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-5-coda-300x60.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-5-coda-100x20.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Coda also has another meaning. In larger, more virtuosic pieces, the coda may be an extended solo for the main soloist. These are often pieces with orchestra. Here, the material may hint at the various sections and themes that came before, bringing an emotional conclusion. Top players sometimes write their own codas to common showcase pieces.<\/p>\n<h3>Segno Symbol in Musical Notation<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cSegno\u201d is Italian for \u201csign.\u201d As a musical notation symbol, this is a general marker. A composer can place this anywhere that needs to be directed to.<\/p>\n<p>This is often placed after an introduction, where the melody or main section begins. Later, we will jump back to this section as instructed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-200947\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-6-segno.jpg\" alt=\"segno sign in sheet music\" width=\"600\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-6-segno.jpg 600w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-6-segno-300x60.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-6-segno-100x20.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The First Ending<\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes, an entire section of music is repeated. When this is so, we may want the ending bit to vary. This is so that the music leads us back to the beginning of the section, or not.<\/p>\n<p>The first ending is represented by a closed bracket containing the number one (1). We play to the end of the bracket, which usually will also be marked with a repeat sign. We then go back to the beginning of the section and play it again.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-200948\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-7-first-ending.jpg\" alt=\"first ending bracket\" width=\"600\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-7-first-ending.jpg 600w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-7-first-ending-300x60.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Musical-Navigation-Symbols-7-first-ending-100x20.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The Second Ending<\/h3>\n<p>After we have played through the first ending and repeated a section of music, we will then skip the first ending, not playing those measures.
