Thread Name: Question about musical notation
Subject: RE: Question about musical notation
I'm not exactly a music professor, and read music painfully, at best. But the notes above and below the staff are extensions of the staff. Since the lowest note of the treble staff is an E, the space note just below that is a D. The line note just below that is a C, in fact middle C on the piano. When you go down a bit further, you have to use the bass clef staff. Likewise, since the top line of the treble staff is F, the space above that is a G, and the line above that is an A. Hope this helps. Regards, BlueJay
