We can place notes on the lines and spaces of the staff. In this lesson we will learn where to place them when there’s a G-clef. Let’s review the notes, this time we will start on G.
Exercise 1
Read the notes out.
G, A, B, C, D, E, F.
Which note comes after G?
Exactly! It is A.
Remember: When the G-clef is on the staff, the note on the second line is G. Consequently, if G is on the second line, A is above the second line, that means it is on the second space. Check the example:
Great! Let’s place all the notes on the staff.
Some notes are placed below the second line. Let’s see them.
Exercise 2
These are the notes backwards starting on G. Read them aloud.
G, F, E, D, C, B, A.
Great! Then, the notes on the first space an first line are F and E.
