The Amateur's first book : or, The Flute without a master, containing an analysis of the rudiments of music, arranged on an entirely new system in progressive lessons . s require the2d instead of the 3d finger of theleft hand to be raised to produceF$ octave; and when G and F#=are alternated rapidly, that fin-gering is the most convenient;but the mode used here is the bestwhen practicable. o o o 6 In this key the signature after the clef, being a sharp on F, all the Fs above and below, must now be made sharp, unlesscontradicted by a natural, thus, ^ ; which restores a note, that was before flat or sharp, to its natural sound. We havealready seen, that when a sharp is placed befor a note, it raises that note half a tone; and if that note, so sharped, should be thefast note in a measure, and the first note in the next measure be the same, the effect of the sharp extends to the latter, andraises that note also, half a tone. The same rule applies to flats which depress a note half a tone. When flats or sharps are inserted in a piece, other than such as are indicated by the signature, they are called accidentals.
