Can anyone explain why the notes below and above the ledger lines on the Grand Staff are A C E? Why not just a continuation of A B C D E F G? A B C D E F G... and A B C follows in the ledger line above the treble clef, for example? Why A C E? The Bass and Treble clef's mesh together in a double A B C D E F G, but then you get A C E before and after and I don't get it.
The notes do continue on as before; ABCDEFG etc. Are you sure you're counting the spaces between the ledger lines (BDF etc)?
A way to remember the scale is:Every Good Boy Does Fineand FACE
Or the Moody Blues album ' Every good boy deserves favor.'Bass staff is "All Cows Eat Grass" for spaces and "Great Big Dogs Fight Animals" for lines. Do guitarists read bass staff?
I got the A C E thing from lesson two here http://www.youtube.com/watch?nomobile=1&v=TxBUnvrexhA
I'll take a look tonight and see if I can figure this out for you.
If it keeps up I'm deleting the thread.....too bad actually its the first time I have ever had to bother you folks. Sorry all.
