摘要

An information display type music teaching device having a fingering location indicating region such as a simulated violin fingerboard displaying the names of the tones and the proper fingering thereof, said teaching device further having a graphic notation region aligned with a musical staff drawn through the key signature region, the fingering and notation in the graphic notation region having a color code and being color correlated to visually assist the student in following the fingering and moving from one region to the other. The fingering location region typically shows the tone names on a simulated violin fingerboard with half step spacing from the nut on each string and, in addition to the tone names, also shows the fingering adjacent to the tone names for a variety of Major Scales and fingering Positions correlated with the key signature region and the graphic notation region.
