Commonly used clefs in staffs include: G clef, F clef, C clef, etc.

1. G clef

The G clef is also called the treble clef, which evolved from the Latin letter G. This clef represents the sound g1 (a group of small characters). After writing this G clef on the staff, the line (the second line) around the clef is the sound g1. Other pitch positions are inferred from this note.

2. F clef

The F clef is also called the bass clef, which evolved from the Latin letter F. This clef represents the sound f (small character group), that is, after writing the F clef on the staff, the line (the fourth line) surrounding the clef is the sound f. Other pitch positions are inferred from this note.

3. C clef

The C clef is also called the alto clef, which evolved from the Latin letter C. This clef represents the sound of c1 (middle C). That is, after writing this C clef on the staff, the line (third line) around this clef is the sound of middle C. Other pitch positions are inferred from this note.

Staves are the most common notation method in the world. A method of recording music on five equidistant parallel lines marked with notes and other symbols of different durations. The earliest birthplace is Greece, and its history is much earlier than the simplified musical notation in numerical form. In ancient Greece, the main form of music was vocal music. The pitch and length of the pronunciation of the lyrics were represented by letters such as A, B, and C. In the Roman era, another symbol began to be used to represent the pitch of the sounds. This notation method It's called "Newm notation".
