What is the purpose of clef signs?
The clefs are used to tell what register the music is to be played in. Treble is to be played in a higher register, alto and tenor are the middle registers and bass is the low register. These are the four main clefs used, however, the clefs that are mainly seen in music are the treble and bass clef. The clefs also determine where the notes are placed. The treble clef is also known as the 'G' clef as it starts on the G line of the stave (as given by a treble clef). The bass clef starts on the 'F' line of the stave (as given by the bass clef).
