Written, printed, or other visual representation of music. There are two basic approaches to notating music.

Symbolic notation describes the sounds themselves and includes methods that vary from assigning pitches different letters of the alphabet to representing a given combination of notes by a graphic sign.

Thus, a single symbol shows both pitch and duration, and a string of these symbols notates both melody and rhythm
