Great video. I think it would be great to have one that focuses only on alto clef (like the treble and bass videos) for beginning violists.

not sure why the dislikes are there... concise and informative

My favourite key signiture finding tool is Fast Cows Go Deaf After Eating Breakfast. :D

[99katnissmusicluvr]

the one that I use is: Father Charles Goes Down And Ends Battle. It also is good for flats: Battle Ends And Down Goes Charles' Father. It's great because it works both ways so you only have to remember one acronym. Hope this is useful for anyone!

Further to this, a classically-trained trombonist friend of mine, who now conducts a brass-band, informs me that many of his trombonists only read from TREBLE clef.

This is a very good series of videos. I hope you will continue to cover the requirements for ABRSM Grade 5 Music Theory.

It's interesting that you mention that alto clef, although mainly used for the viola, is also used for the alto trombone (an instrument which fell into disuse for a while but seems to be making a comeback). I might add here that the tenor clef is also used by classical tenor trombonists, although brass-band, jazz and popular players will generally prefer to read bass clef.
