Notes On The Treble Clef

The Note G on the Treble Staff

The Treble Clef tells us which note each line and space on the staff represents. Notice the Treble Clef looks like the letter G. This is because the 2nd line where the clef curls around and ends indicates that the second line represents the note G.  

Notes 

A Note is a marking on the staff, usually with a round circle with a stem attached to it that indicates a specific pitch. The higher the note is placed on the staff, the higher the sounding pitch of the note, The lower the placement on the staff, the lower the sounding pitch of that note. We use letters to name the notes, which are A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. Each note is located on the staff on one of the five horizontal lines of the staff, or one of the four spaces in between the staff lines.

Notes on the Treble Staff

Because of the Treble Clef, we are able to determine which note each line or space represents in reference to the 2nd line, which we know is the note “G”. 

The line notes are easily remembered by the phrase “Every Good Boy Does Fine, The space notes spell the word “FACE.”
