[musictlk] help with music

I'm in band.  I know what a major scale is, as my teacher has us 
warm up with a concert b-flat major scale, but it's different for 
every instrument.

Marissa,

Don't go by what you thought.  You're wrong, and I'm trying to 
help
you to understand.  C, d, e, f, g, a, b, and c are the letter 
names of
the notes.  Obviously, you don't know what a major scale is, 
regarding
half steps and whole steps.  Look at the white keys on the piano; 
then
play from c to c.  That's a major scale.  Note where there are no 
keys
between, hence the half steps.

Ok, but I thought a whole step is a
c d e f g
instead of
c d-sharp, f, g-sharp
I did that wrong

Obviously, you're confused.  Every key on the piano is a half 
step.  E
to F-sharp is a whole step.  B-flat to C is a whole step.  There 
is a
key on the piano skipped in both cases.

Wouldn't that be a half step?
So a c on piano would be a d or a d-flat on clarinet?
I'm confused.
Is there a chart somewhere?

Hi Marissa,

The clarinet pitch is a whole step higher than the piano.  B-flat 
on
the piano is C on the clarinet.  E natural on the piano will be
F-sharp on the clarinet.

I don't know the answers to your other questions.

Blessings,

Linda

So I just downloaded this file today from a site.  Does it show 
up
as braille music? At all?

I have some other questions too.
Where can I get free music to download, that I can actually read
once embossed?
For transposing music, is it a half step up from piano to 
clarinet,
or is it a full step?
If it is a full step, I tried it with a concert b-flat scale and
the  f-sharp on on clarinet matches the e on piano, shouldn't it 
be
an f natural?
All for now: thanks
