Treble


A flute uses what clef treble or base?

Treble clef, and bass clef, are just clefs, all notes can be played by writing with both of these clefs. If you mean, can the bass clef play below middle C, then yes, but just below at its Bb. The question itself is vague.


What clef do brass instruments use?

Tenor Trombone - Brass Band - Treble Clef (in Bflat) Orchestra - Tenor or Bass Clef (in C) Bass Trombone - Always Bass Clef (in C) Alto Trombone - Alto Clef (in C) A Bass Clef( A F Clef) All trombones are used in different things, so the examples are not specifically correct. Neither are the given clefs. It depends on the trombonist and the piece. For instance, I play in all different keys because my music varies. The keys are sort of correct as well. I will leave them there because it will help to see what I mean. Tenor trombone - Is in (sounds like concert Bflat) trombone Bflat Bass trombone - Is in (sounds like Concert Bflat) trombone Bflat Alto Trombone - Is in (sounds like Concert C) trombone C All the "sounds like" are for when the trombone plays a Bflat. The common misconception about trombone keys is that a trombone in Bflat is in C (or concert pitch) as that is what it sounds like. It is NOT. It is in Bflat.

What are the lines of an f clef?

Strictly speaking, the G clef itself does not have lines. The G Clef marks the treble and soprano sections of the musical notation. However, if you mean the lines themselves, there are five and they mark different notes to be played by the instrument. The bottom line is E. The line above this marks G. After that is B, followed by D and F. A mnemonic for remembering the lines is "Every Good Boy Does Fine." The spaces are the notes in between. So, the first space at the bottom stands for F, the second for A, the third for C, and the fourth for E. A simple mnemonic for this is "FACE." The notes on the lines and spaces themselves vary as well.
