Hey gang,
On monday, I was teaching some students and it came to mind that some of you might not know what the letter names of the lines and spaces are on the treble clef. The treble clef is the G looking sign. It's nick name is the G clef.
First we number the lines and spaces from the bottom to the top.
_____________ 5 __________
_____________ 4 __________ 4
_____________ 3 __________ 3
_____________ 2 __________ 2
_____________ 1 __________ 1

then letter lines

_______F (fine)
_______D (does )
_______B (boy)
_______G (good)
_______E (every)

then spaces

_______
_______E
_______C
_______A
_______F

The treble clef is used for the guitar, violin, flute, trumpet, saxophone, and clarinet - just to name a few. Let me know what instrument you play that uses the treble clef and have a great time playing.
