So one sharp would make it C, and another would make it G, with one sharp.
To read Music in Bb, that is written in C. you do the opposite, move everything down a whole step, and take away two sharps/add two flats. |
You have it backwards. When playing a Bb part on C, you transpose down a step. When playing a C Part on Bb you go up.
