[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a staff sheet or the like on which staff lines are drawn. [Background technology]

[0002] Patent Document 1 describes a colored staff paper. This colored staff paper shows each note in a unique color to make the sheet music easier to see and read. In this specification, "staff" refers to the five parallel lines used to create sheet music. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Public Disclosure No. 59-22458 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Incidentally, conventional staff sheets (colored staff paper described in Patent Document 1) are paper sheets with colored staff lines drawn on them. In order to learn musical scales while playing a piece of music using the colored staff lines, it is necessary to write notes on the colored staff lines. Learning musical scales using colored staff lines is time-consuming.

[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and aims to provide a staff sheet that makes it easy to learn musical scales while playing music using colored staffs. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the first invention is a staff sheet consisting of a transparent sheet on which staff lines are drawn, and five different colors are assigned to each line of the staff from the first line to the fifth line.

[0007] The second invention is the first invention, in which a plurality of staves are arranged vertically and spaced apart on the transparent sheet.

[0008] The third invention is the second invention, in which the staves for the treble clef and the bass clef are drawn in pairs on the transparent sheet, and the same color is assigned to the lines of the treble clef and the bass clef that correspond to the same syllable in the scale.

[0009] The fourth invention is a staff sticker comprising the staff sheet of the first invention and an adhesive layer laminated on one end side and the other end side of the back surface of the staff sheet in the extension direction of the fifth line, and no adhesive layer is provided between the adhesive layer on one end side and the adhesive layer on the other end side on the back surface of the staff sheet.

[0010] The fifth invention is a sheet-attached musical score comprising a musical score on which multiple staves are written with spaces between them above and below, and on which notes according to the music piece are written, and the staff sheet of the second invention, in which each staff on the staff sheet overlaps exactly with each staff on the musical score. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] In this invention, the staff sheet is made up of a transparent sheet on which staff lines are drawn. Five different colors are assigned to each of the first to fifth lines of the staff. Therefore, simply placing the staff sheet on a commercially available musical score will result in the colored staff lines and notes being superimposed (enabling music reading). This invention makes it easy to learn musical scales while playing a piece of music using the colored staff lines. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0013] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the following embodiments are merely examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, its applications, or its uses.

[0014] [Staff sheet configuration] This embodiment is a staff sheet 10 shown in Figure 1. The staff sheet 10 is composed of a transparent sheet 1 on which multiple staves 5t, 5h are written with gaps between them above and below. The transparent sheet 1 can be made of, for example, a plastic sheet. On the staff sheet 10, no notes are written on any of the staves 5t, 5h.

[0015] 1, a staff pair 50 consisting of a treble clef staff 5t and a bass clef staff 5h is printed on a transparent sheet 1. On one side of the transparent sheet 1, multiple staff pairs 50 (for example, three or more staff pairs 50) are printed vertically and spaced apart.

[0016] As shown in FIG. 2, each staff 5t, 5h has five lines L1, L2, L3, L4, and L5, from the first line L1 to the fifth line L5, spaced equally vertically. Five different colors are assigned to each of the five lines L1 to L5. These five colors can be selected from colors excluding black, for example. In this specification, the staffs 5t, 5h using five colors are sometimes referred to as "color staves."

[0017] Regarding the colors of the lines L1 to L5 of the staves 5t and 5h, in the 5t staff for the treble clef, the first line L1 corresponding to the syllable "mi" that makes up the major scale is green, the second line L2 corresponding to the syllable "so" is sky blue (blue), the third line L3 corresponding to the syllable "si" is white, the fourth line L4 corresponding to the syllable "re" is lemon green (yellow), and the fifth line L5 corresponding to the syllable "fa" is orange.

[0018] In the 5h staff for the bass clef, the first line L1, which corresponds to the "So" syllable that makes up the major scale, is sky blue (blue), the second line L2, which corresponds to the "Si" syllable, is white, the third line L3, which corresponds to the "Re" syllable, is lemon yellow (yellow), the fourth line L4, which corresponds to the "Fa" syllable, is orange, and the fifth line L5, which corresponds to the "La" syllable, is brown. Note that the colors of the lines L1 to L5 of the 5t and 5h staves are not limited to those described in the previous paragraph and this paragraph.

[0019] In both the treble clef staff 5t and the bass clef staff 5h, the lines corresponding to the same syllable are the same color. That is, in both the treble clef staff 5t and the bass clef staff 5h, the line corresponding to the "so" syllable is sky blue, the line corresponding to the "si" syllable is white, the line corresponding to the "re" syllable is lemon yellow, and the line corresponding to the "fa" syllable is orange.

[0020] [How to use the staff sheet and the effects of the embodiment] The staff sheet 10 is used by placing it on a musical score (for example, a commercially available musical score) 20 that corresponds to the staff sheet 10.

[0021] In the score 20 corresponding to the staff sheet 10, staff pairs 55 of the same size and number as the staff pairs 50 on the staff sheet 10 are arranged vertically at the same intervals as the staff pairs 50 on the staff sheet 10. As shown in FIG. 3(A), the staff pairs 55 on the score 20 are, like those on the staff sheet 10, pairs of treble clef staff 25t and bass clef staff 25h. Unlike the staff sheet 10, the score 20 has notes 6 written on the staves 25t and 25h according to the piece of music. Note that the score 20 and the corresponding staff sheet 10 may be prepared and sold as a sheet-attached score.

[0022] When using the staff sheet 10, as shown in Figure 3(A), the user holds the staff sheet 10 above the sheet music 20 and places the staff sheet 10 on top of the sheet music 20 so that each staff pair 50 on the staff sheet 10 fits snugly against each staff pair 55 on the sheet music 20 (see Figure 3(B)). On the music stand, the staff sheet 10 is placed in front of the sheet music 20. The staff sheet 10 may also be fixed to the sheet music 20 using a fixing device such as a clip.

[0023] This causes the colored staves 5t and 5h on the staff sheet 10 to overlap with the notes 6 on the musical score 20. Conventionally, in order to learn a scale while playing a piece of music using colored staves, it was necessary to write the notes on colored staff paper. However, in this embodiment, learning a scale using the colored staves 5t and 5h can be done simply by placing the staff sheet 10 over the musical score 20. When learning this scale, it is easy to recognize which note in the scale it corresponds to based on the color of the line on which the note overlaps. The staff sheet 10 can be used as an aid in mastering the regularity inherent in a scale.

[0024] The color staves 5t, 5h can be printed on the transparent sheet 1. Opaque ink may be used for printing. In this case, the color staves 5t, 5h of the staff sheet 10 can be easily recognized even when they overlap the black staves 25t, 25h of the musical score 20.

[0025] [Modification of the embodiment] This modified example is a staff sticker 12 using colored staff lines 5t, 5h. The staff sticker 12 is a film-like staff sheet 10 with an adhesive layer 13 on the backside. As with the above-described embodiment, the staff sheet 10 is made of a transparent sheet 1 on which staff lines 5t, 5h are drawn.

[0026] As shown in Figures 4(A) and 4(B), the staff stickers 12 comprise a staff sheet 10 and adhesive layers 13 laminated on the back surface of the staff sheet 10 (transparent sheet 1) at one end and the other end in the extension direction of the staves 5t, 5h. On the back surface of the staff sheet 10, no adhesive layer is provided between the adhesive layer 13 on one end and the adhesive layer 13 on the other end. The staff stickers 12 are provided on a release paper 14 that serves as a backing. The staff stickers 12 are used by peeling them off the release paper 14.

[0027] In this modified example, when overlapping the staff pairs 50 of the staff stickers 12 with the staff pairs 55 of the musical score 20, as shown in Figure 4(C), the angle of the staff stickers 12 can be adjusted with only one end of the adhesive layer 13 attached to the musical score 20, making it easy to overlap the staff pairs 50 of the staff stickers 12 perfectly with the staff pairs 55 of the musical score 20. Furthermore, because the adhesive strength of the adhesive layer 13 of the staff stickers 12 is not very strong, the staff stickers 12 can be peeled off from the musical score 20 and reused after studying.

[0028] While the staff sticker 12 in Figure 4(A) shows one staff pair 50, the staff sticker 12 may also have multiple staff pairs 50 spaced apart from one another. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 5, one or more adhesive layers 23 (e.g., dot-shaped adhesive layers) may be provided partially between the adhesive layer 13 on one end and the adhesive layer 13 on the other end. In this case, the area of each adhesive layer 23 may be smaller than that of the adhesive layer 13.

[0029] [Other embodiments] In the above-described embodiment, the transparent sheet 1 has a staff pair 50 consisting of a treble clef staff 5t and a bass clef staff 5h. However, if the musical score 20 has only one staff 25t, 25h, the transparent sheet 1 may have only the staff 5t, 5h corresponding to that staff.

[0030] In the above embodiment, the treble clef and bass clef are written on the staff lines 5t and 5h of the transparent sheet 1, respectively, but the treble clef and bass clef do not have to be written on the staff lines 5t and 5h.

[0031] In the above-described modified example, a large number of staff labels 12 may be arranged in the longitudinal direction on a long release paper 14 to form a roll. [Industrial Applicability]

[0032] The present invention is applicable to staff sheets and the like on which staff lines are drawn. [Explanation of symbols]
