Editing Dulzaina (section)

===Music reading and writing===

Music for the dolsaina is always written in [[Treble Clef|treble clef]]. G-dolsaina (dolsaina en sol) is a [[transposing instrument]] and its music is written in treble clef. Scores written for dolçaina should ideally be transposed into treble clef. Therefore, the lowest note is D4 (the first one below the treble clef staff) and the highest one is A5 (on the first additional line above the treble clef staff). In order to find the actual concert note pitches (in C) in a score for dolsaina, one must transpose them up a perfect fifth, as for the [[cor anglais]] (English horn).

Unless specifically stated otherwise, in the following sections, when there is a reference to notes or keys, one must think on the ones that are used by dolsaina players (in G) and not to the actual pitch (in C).
