There are two most commonly used staffs. These are called the treble staff (the higher staff with the swirly, twirly symbol), and the bass staff (the lower staff with a not so swirly symbol). The treble and bass staff have five lines and each. There are four spaces between these lines. The treble staff has names as follows...
_____ F(line)
E(space)
_____ D(line)
C(space)
_____ B(line)
A(space)
_____ G(line)
F(space)
_____ E(line)
The bass staff has names as follows...
_____ A(line)
G(space)
_____ F(line)
E(space)
_____ D(line)
C(space)
_____ B(line)
A(space)
_____ G(line)
I'm sorry if this looks confusing, but it is hard to show without images.
Above the staff ... at the beginning of the measure.
Those little lines above or below a music staff are called ledger lines.
The five lines and four spaces on which notes on a musical page are written, are called a Staff. A Treble Clef and Bass Clef staff are combined for piano music. All notes, quarter notes, half notes, whole notes, etc. are placed on a staff or if they are higher than the staff allows, they use ledger lines. In a piano staff, a ledger line is a short line between the two staffs that is shown when the note Middle C is notated. Ledger lines can also be above the top staff or below the bottom staff.
Ledger lines :)
I Dunno :L Edit: The highest note possible is an A above high C; or 4 ledger lines above the staff. In most of the common repetoire, however, oboes rarely play anything above the D above the staff.
The notes above and below the staff for the keyword "turn" are G above the staff and E below the staff.
The notes above the staff in treble clef are E, G, B, D, and F. The notes below the staff are F, D, B, G, and E.
When you run out of lines on a musical staff, you can use ledger lines. These are short lines added above or below the staff to extend the range of notes that can be notated.
The bass clef notes on the staff for the keyword "bass clef" are G below the staff and F above the staff.
The bass clef notes that can be found both above and below the staff are G, F, E, D, and C.
The treble clef notes that can be found both above and below the staff are E, F, G, A, B, C, D.
I can't view images or examples, but to extend a staff upwards or downwards in sheet music, simply add ledger lines above or below the staff to accommodate notes that fall outside the normal range of the staff. This allows the music to be notated accurately and clearly.
Above the staff ... at the beginning of the measure.
The staff can be extended upward or downward by adding ledger lines above or below the staff to accommodate notes outside the usual range. This allows for the notation of both higher and lower pitches that fall outside the five lines of the standard staff.
The last line that is shorter than the others on a staff is called a "ledger line." Ledger lines are used to extend the range of the staff, allowing notes above or below the standard five lines to be notated clearly. They are typically used for notes that fall outside the regular staff notation.
The line through middle C is called a "ledger line." Ledger lines are used in musical notation to extend the staff for notes that fall above or below it. Middle C itself is positioned on the first ledger line below the treble staff or the first ledger line above the bass staff.
On a regular one its b below the staff-f above the staff some saxes have Bb and F#
