Numbers using the same
colors are the same pattern.
REMEMBER:
Music is formed by patterns of sounds
that often repeat themselves so, if you
learn one pattern you will
automatically know it when it is
repeated later on in the music.

Here you can see colors representing
the different sound patterns with each
separate color given a letter name to
help identify the form of the pattern.
