Vocal music is read by following these steps: Read left to right: Read the sheet music from left to right. Identify the notes: Each note is a coordinate on a graph with pitch on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. Sing higher for higher notes: Higher notes are sung higher. Identify rests: A squiggly line indicates a rest, which means nothing happens at that point. Look for dynamic markings: Dynamic markings, such as forte (loud) and mezzo forte (moderately loud), indicate how to sing a passage. Consider the context: If the piece is part of a larger work, such as an opera or song cycle, read the entire work to understand the context of the piece. Scan the piece: Quickly scan the piece to notice changes in tempo, mood, dynamics, and key. Practice: Practice each phrase on a syllable that works well for your voice, such as "lah". You can also try speaking the text from memory. read less
