We said before that in Western music we have musical notation.

我以前说过在西里有记谱法。

And musical notation is relied on more in Western music than any other musical civilization around the world.

而记谱法在西中更受倚重比在全世界其它文明中地位更高。

Musical notation is really very simple.

谱真很简单。

A lot of the words we use in music with our musical notation are in Italian.

我在中用我谱使用很多词都是意大利语。

The letters looked like clothes hung out to dry on a line and they looked more like musical notation than writing.

这些字母看起来像是挂在一根绳子上晾干衣服，而且它看起来更像是谱而不是文字。

" High" can also be used in talking about musical notation; we can talk about a high note and a low note – high note up here, low note down here.

“高” 也可以用在谱上；我可以讨论高和低——高在这里， 低在这里。
