Many people use flash cards to learn to read music. Should you?

If you’re looking for a way to practice the music notes, flash cards are not a bad tool to use in your music reading efforts. But you must remember that is all they are. Just as you only use a hammer when you need to drive a nail, you should only use flash cards to memorize music note names. They must be used in “concert” (no pun intended) with a complete program to learn to read music. Going back to the tool analogy, a hammer is a great component of a tool set, but it is not a complete set by itself.

So here’s how you should use flash cards to learn to read music:  to practice the notes. Especially if you’re a piano player and need to learn both clefs, make sure you spend an equal amount of time learning both clefs. (also, mix up the cards so you don’t do the full bass then full treble clef) Always remember though that if you choose to use flash cards they must be used as part of a complete music reading program.
