Treble Clef / Treble Staff
A Treble Clef
indicates that the second line from the bottom of the staff is G.
The symbol was derived from a handwritten "G", and you will notice that the clef symbol circles around the second line from the bottom of the staff.
A staff with a treble clef is called a treble staff.
Any Particular G?
If there are only seven note names, and any number of octaves, which G is the one on the second line of the treble staff?
Answer:
The G on the second line of the treble staff is not just any G, but one that corresponds to a specific pitch (one of approximately 415.3 Hz).
