B. PRESENTATION:

In connection of that in Music, being familiar with the various musical

symbols will allow you to perform music well. This lesson will familiarize
you with the different musical symbols necessary for reading music. And
our lesson is all about Pitches and So-Fa Syllables on the Musical Staff.

C. LESSON PROPER

 Music is read and written on a series of alternate lines and space

called a staff.
 The staff has five lines and four spaces. Each line or space on the
staff has a specific pitch or tone.

The exact pitch or tone of a note is determined by another musical

symbol called the clef.
There are many kinds of clefs in music.
The most familiar ones are the treble clef or G-clef the bass clef or F-
Clef.

TREBLE CLEF BASS CLEFF

The treble clef or G-clef is the common clef sign. It indicates that the pitch
G is on the second line of the staff above middle C.
On the other hand, the bass clef of F-clef indicates that the pitch F is on
the second line below the middle C.
 YES, MA’AM.
Do you understand class?
Good, ok let’s proceed.
PITCH NAMES
The lines and spaces of the staff show the exact position of the tones or
pitches.
To easily determine this, the first seven letters of the alphabet are used to
name each pitch. These are letters A,B,C,D,E,F,and G.
Take note that the position of each tone is also determined by the kind of
clef used.

Ledger line
Aside from the pitches on the staff, pitches can also be written below and
above the musical staff. A ledger line is used to indicate pitches written
on the line below or above the staff.
The figure below shows the position of the pitches.
Notice that the two pitches below the staff with G-clef are D and.
Meanwhile, the pitches above the F-clef are B and C.
SO-FA SYLLABLES
The pith names of the lines and spaces of the staff are often used to read
notes. However, if the notes are to be sung on pitch, the so-fa syllable
must be used. Each pitch name on the staff has an equivalent so-fa
syllable.

To the so-fa syllables can be easily remembered with the help of hand
signs.
 D. APPLICATION
YES, Ma’am.
Now, Can you sing the so-fa syllables with hand signs?
All pupils will sing
Very good!

Now, open your book on pages 32-33 and answer the Practice and I can
do it.

 the staff has five lines and four spaces.
 each line or space on the staff has a specific pitch or tone.

letters of alphabet: A,B,C,D,E,F, and G.
 the exact pitch or tone of a note is determined by another musical
