its back normal or following the new rule?
for example E-flat hits sharp rule became E and E-flat hits flat rule became D
or back to E-Flat?

i think if there is sharp you must keep playing sharp before second sign – Vico Mar 18 '18 at 06:16

3Are you talking about inside the red box? There is no sharp there. It goes to E natural and then back to E flat. – Timinycricket Mar 18 '18 at 06:18

I think you have mistaken the natural sign for the sharp sign. The natural sign destroys sharps and flats. This is why a new flat is added after the natural sign, to make it flat again. There are no sharps here. This is a sharp: # The key signature shows you all the flats in this piece : B, E, A If you want an E natural you have to write the natural sign but it only will affect all the E's in that measure. In the next measure if you want an E natural again you will have to write the natural sign again. I hope that helps.

In the red box there is an E nat then an Eb. What it says is what gets played, regardless of key Sig. The sign directly before a note is the definitive. Note that after the Eb is re-established (re, since as stated in the key signature), the next E in the same bar also is played Eb.
Here there are two more, both Eb.
