clef
Pitch indicator symbol
A clef is a symbol placed at the beginning of a musical staff to indicate which pitches the lines and spaces represent.
The treble clef (G clef) and bass clef (F clef) are most common; together they form the grand staff used for piano music.
Other clefs exist for specific instruments and vocal ranges.
She learned to read both clefs.
