SYMBOLS AND TERMINOLOGY:

CLEFS
CLEFS
a clef ( from the french for "key" ) is a musical symbol
used to indicate the pitch of written notes. placed on one
of the lines at the beginning of the staff, it indicates the
name and pitch of the notes on that line. this line serves
as a reference point by which the names of the notes on
any other line or space of the staff may be determined.

2 common clefs na ginagamit sa piano sheet music (

madalas ninyong nakikita ) are:

Figure vi.a
g-clef

G-clef { when the G-clef is placed on the second line of

the staff ang tawag sa kanya is treble clef }

Figure vi.b.
treble clef

and

Figure vi.c.
f-clef

F-Clef { when the F-clef is placed on the fourth line, it is

called bass clef }

Figure vi.d.
bass clef

note:
may instances lalo na sa mga music sheets na ginawa ko
eh may number 8 na nakadikit either sa top/bottom ng
G-clef or F-clef. it only indicates na you'll be playing the
notes one octave { octave is the relationship between two
pitches where one has a frequency of 2 times the other... }
higher or lower... depende kung sa taas nakapatong yung
8 or sa ilalim... siyempre if sa ilalim tulad nitong nasa
figure vi.e. sa f-clef lahat ng notes na mababasa mo dito
should be played an octave lower. same lang din sa g-clef
kasi nasa ilalim yung 8, so notes should be played an
octave lower. yun lang yun kaya 'wag kang mawindang...
