Treble Clef: Basic Essentials of Music Theory
Hey! I am Mark Black and I am here on expertvillage.com. I am here to talk to you about music theory and learning how to read music. The most instruments today, these days use the treble clef, that’s the most common and of course instruments like the piano, the bass, the tuba, upright bass and electric bass use the bass clef. But most instruments do use the treble clef now. So, with that treble clef there, it is just the alphabet, this is a G and then this is an A. In music, in American music, I should say we use those letters. I know you know this, but I am telling anyway A, B, C, D, E, F and G and like alphabet blocks stacked on top of each other, the B is always above the A and the C is always above the B and the G is always below the A. So, if you go up this way, you are walking up the alphabet. This is the G, that is our last letter so we start over, this is an A, this is a B, this is a C, this is a D. It just goes on forever and then if you are going backwards you are walking down the alphabet, if this is a G, then this is an F. This is an F and note there is an F. This would be an E. This would be a D, we are just walking up and down the alphabet.
