Hey there, I have a question What if the Bass clef has number 8 beneath it? Can you explain it? Thanks.

[CoolBear777]

@MrManonthemoon69 I believe it denotes the music to be played an octave lower. Don't quote me. I don't see that very often in bass clef.

is it the same for timpani music?

[CoolBear777]

@dann6022 Don't quote me, but I would believe because of the tuning of the instrument, that would be the case.

So your saying yes it is the same for timpani music....cause I'm playing timpani for the first time....

Your videos are very informative. I have learned a lot from you. I also play keys, and so read the treble clef very well. For a long time I had probs with the bass clef, till I realized its just a third above the treble... ie. the bottom line on treble is an E, count up three, E-F-G, and you know the bass line is G. Dont know if it helps but it did me.
