Today We Begin...Make sure you have notebook and staff paper – you will want to take notes so you have a reference for your homework (it will be a couple weeks before we get our textbooks!)

Elements of PitchSubtitle

Pitch
▪ Pitch, in music, refers to the highness and lowness of a sound.
▪ Pitches are named by using the first seven letters of the alphabet – A, B, C, D, E, F, and G

The Staff
▪ A staff is used in music to indicate the precise pitch desired.
▪ A staff consists of 5 lines and 4 spaces, but it may be extended indefinitely through the use of ledger lines
▪ Every line or space represents a WHITE KEY on the keyboard

The Staff – Ledger Lines
▪ A ledger line is a small line that extends the staff when we run out of room
▪ Ledger Lines (high)
▪ Ledger Lines (low)

Clefs
▪ A clef must appear at the beginning of the staff
▪ The clef determines which pitches are associated with which lines and spaces
▪ 4 Clefs: Treble, Bass, Alto, and Tenor– Correspond to different ranges▪ Treble: HIGHEST pitches
▪ Alto
▪ Tenor
▪ Bass: LOWEST pitches

▪ The Treble Clef is also known as the G clef – it draws a “G” around the G line

The Tenor Clef – “C Clef”
▪ The Tenor Clef is known as a C Clef – the middle of the clef marks where middle C is
▪ It is LOWER than the Treble clef and Alto clefs, but HIGHER than the Bass clef
▪ Trombones and bassoons will play in tenor clef (in their higher registers)

Staff Relationships
▪ Below is where Middle C is on Treble, Bass, Alto, and Tenor Clefs
▪ Composers try to avoid ledger lines
as much as possible – if the range
of an instrument is consistently
higher or lower than usual, the clef
will change
(if available – there is nothing higher than the
treble clef. Flutes and clarinets read a LOT of
ledger lines)

The Grand Staff
▪ The Grand Staff is a staff that combines the treble and bass clefs
▪ Middle C lands right between the two
![Page 23: Today We Begin... Make sure you have notebook and staff paper – you will want to take notes so you have a reference for your homework (it will be a couple.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649f585503460f94c7cfcd/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Octave Registers
▪ Octaves directly related to the keyboard
▪ The C nearest the middle of the keyboard is called “Middle C” or C4.
▪ Higher C’s (moving towards the right of the keyboard) are named C5, C6, and so on.
▪ Lower C’s (moving towards the left) are named C3, C2, and C1. Notes below C1 are followed by a 0 – B0 and A0.

Octave Registers
▪ From any C up to or down to the next C is called an octave
▪ All the pitches from on C up to, but not including the next C are said to be in the same octave register
▪ The white key above C4 would be D4 because it is in the same octave register
▪ However, the white key below C4 would be named B3– (we go C-C because the C Major scale involves all the white keys)
