Staff
The staff is a graph that musical pitches are placed upon. It has five lines and four spaces. A pitch can be placed on a line or in a space.
Pitch Names
*There are seven repeating pitch names:
A B C D E F G
*Students, you will learn these pitches as you go through the program.
Treble/G Clef
The treble clef sign is placed on the staff to show the position of the pitch names. It also has a second name of G clef, which shows us where to find the pitch G. The pitch G is placed on the second line of the staff - where the treble clef sign scrolls around the G.
