Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This invention relates to musical scores. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, playing musical instruments such as the piano has become popular with the aim of improving brain function. It is said that playing musical instruments, especially for the elderly, is also effective in preventing dementia.

[0003] An example of such sheet music used by elderly people is the sheet music described in Patent Document 1. This sheet music has staff notation and tablature displayed side by side, one above the other, so that elderly people can easily read it, and each of the multiple lines of the tablature is colored in a different color, and the fret numbers displayed on the lines of the tablature are highlighted with a marker of the same color as the lines.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility model registration No. 3159910 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, with such scores, only the scales, notes, chords, etc. are written on the sheet music, making it difficult to recognize the image of the song written on the sheet music. In particular, for elderly people who are aiming to improve their cognitive function (brain training), when they play a song written on the sheet music for the first time in a long time, it takes time to remember what the song was like.

[0006] In addition, young children may be taught to play musical instruments for the purpose of cultivating aesthetics, etc., but when using unfamiliar nursery rhymes or songs as the subject matter, it can be difficult to convey the image of the song using only the sheet music.

[0007] The present invention relates to a musical score that can make it easier to recognize the image of the song written on the score and improve recognition of the song. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The musical score of the present invention is characterized in that it comprises a music area in which the music is written and a work area in which at least one training content for cognitive function training created on a theme related to the music is placed, and the music area and the work area are placed adjacent to each other.

[0009] With this configuration, the musical score of the present invention has a music area and a work area in which at least one or more training contents (e.g., coloring books and puzzles) for cognitive function training are arranged, and since the music area and the work area are arranged adjacent to each other, the performer can associate and remember the experience of playing the music with the experience of training with the training contents. This can improve the recognition of the music. In addition, since the training contents are created with a theme related to the music, it is easy to recognize the image of the music.

[0010] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, the training content includes a coloring book.

[0011] Coloring books can activate the brain by having children recognize the shapes of pictures drawn on paper and choose the appropriate color, making it easier for them to recognize the image of a song from the picture. Effect of the Invention

[0012] The musical score of the present invention makes it easier to recognize the image of the song written on the sheet music and improves recognition of the song. [Brief description of the drawings]
