How to Transition Between Bass Clef & Treble Clef

Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village, I am Eric Williams and I am here to tell you about reading music. The bass clef does have a transition at the very top of the bass clef which takes you into the notes of the treble clef. Let me try to illustrate that. If you start with your famous low g that we were just talking about, we have g, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, a is the very top line of the bass clef. When you get to b, it is note that sits on the very top of bass the clef and then you need to go to ledger lines. The very first ledger line above the bass clef takes you to c and by the beautiful magic of music, this c right here, this middle c and it is the first ledger line below the treble clef. So this cross over point right here, we are actually in some ways the bass clef and the treble clef at the same time, the same note. From here on out what we can do is treat this as middle c as the ledger line right below the treble clef and then we continue onward and upward to d which is a note hanging off the bottom of the treble clef and then we go e which is every good boy does fine. So every f, g, a, b, c, d, e, and the very top line of the treble clef is f. So we start way down here and we up here and we've covered the notes of the bass clef and the treble clef. "
