When you are speaking of singing voices, the usual four are (from high to low) soprano, alto, tenor and bass. So alto does sing higher than bass. When you are speaking of written staffs, the two staffs are treble (higher) and bass (lower). An alto singing part is typically written on the treble staff; but the alto range extends down (using ledger lines below the staff) into notes that can also be written on the bass staff.
Yes! You can tell from the use of 'bass' - bass is a lower sounding noise, and normally in an orchestra you will find the cello and double bass using a bass clef rather than a treble clef.
the volume of bass and treble are generally controlled independently. Depending on the settings, either one can be louder.
Bass is low, treble is high.
It's the other way around, actually.
In music, a Treble is a boy whose voice has not yet broken, and who generally sings the top part of a system. Also, in bell ringing (see campanology), the treble, is the lightest bell in the tower.
Yes. Triple and Treble both mean three times as much, though triple is more informal than treble. Treble in music originated as one of three clefs - that is treble, bass and alto. It is sometimes thought that treble in SATB originated in all male choirs with no soprano singers and young boys as altos, therefore being one of three as well.
violas dont use treble clef they use alto clef
Double Basses normally play in the Bass Clef. On the other hand, they sometimes use Tenor Clef and I have seen Treble clef used for higher notes but transposed an octave lower than written.
Alto is HIGHER than bass clef.
It's the other way around, actually.
The Treble Clef has higher notes than the Bass clef.
of course
A Tenor.
The range between bass and alto is tenor

G clef is another name for the treble clef (it circles the G line on the staff). It represents a higher range than the bass clef.

Clefs do not have 'sounds'. They are merely tools to indicate where on the musical stave notes are to be placed. However, the treble clef 'places' higher notes than the bass clef. If a clef is placed in the middle of the staff, then the notes that follow that clef are of that clef. For example, if the bass clef is placed on the treble staff, the notes that follow it are to be interpreted as "bass clef" notes and played using lower notes on the piano. The opposite is true if the treble clef is placed on the bass staff.
A treble is the highest of the four main male voice types, usually found in cathedral choirs, and is sung by boys. The soprano is the highest of the three main female voice types, higher than mezzo-soprano and alto.
