It sets the position of the note 'G'. Originally the Treble Clef was a large letter 'G'. The curve of the clef always starts on the second line of the stave from the bottom which then sets this second line as the note 'G'. From this note all others can be determined (eg botton line 'E', middle line 'B', next line up 'D' and top line 'F', Bottom space 'F', second space up 'A', next space up 'C', top space 'E').

Incidentally, the Bass Clef starts from the second line from the top of the stave and was originally a letter 'F' and so it sets this note as 'F', one octave and one note below the 'G' of the Treble Clef.

Is A bass clef and a treble clef the same?

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.


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).
