Bass Clef

The bass clef is a musical symbol used to indicate that the notes written on the staff should be played in a lower pitch range. It resembles a stylized letter "F" and designates specific lines and spaces for notes, making it easier for musicians to read music for instruments like the bass guitar, cello, and tuba, as well as for the lower ranges of piano and voice. In sheet music, it generally denotes notes that sound deeper or lower than those indicated by the treble clef, which is used for higher pitches.
