I have started learning to read music on the piano, and im having trouble understanding what key to hit on the keyboard in relation to the notes. I understand all the notes that are actually ON the staff like FACE and EGBDF, but the keys that are below and above the staffs with the lines through them i dont really understand.

My choir teacher said that the first note with the line through it on the bottom of the treble clef is middle C…..but if thats middle C than is that the same C as the C in FACE

learn to read music

I play the piano, but know very little about reading music. I want to be able to play the really complicated classical pieces, which I know takes years of practice and dedication. I need a true pianist for this question. If I start learning to play by ONLY reading the sheet music, will progressive lessons get me to the point that I can play the Beethoven and Bach?

I can already read music, but I’m limited. I took lessons as a kid and I remember alot of what I learned, but the way I play, I can read what I play on the treble clef but make up my own rhythms on the bass clef. I want to know if formal lessons will help me to look at a complicated piece of music and be able to play it at first glance.
