The grand staff. When music on two staves is joined by a brace, or is intended to be played at once by a single performer (usually a keyboard instrument or harp), a grand staff (American English) or great stave (British English) is created. [dubious – discuss] Typically, the upper staff uses a treble clef and the lower staff has a bass clef.
A brace is used to connect two or more lines of music that are played simultaneously, usually by a single player, generally when using a grand staff. The grand staff is used for piano, harp, organ, and some pitched percussion instruments. [1] The brace is occasionally called an accolade in some old texts and can vary in design and style. Bracket
Grand staff. Some manuscript paper is pre-printed with notational elements such as system brackets, braces, clefs, bar lines, and instrumental designations. Manuscript paper (sometimes staff paper in U.S. English, or just music paper) is paper preprinted with staves ready for musical notation. [1]
The treble clef is also the upper staff of the grand staff used for harp and keyboard instruments. Most high parts for bass-clef instruments (e.g. cello, double bass, bassoon, and trombone) are written in the tenor clef, but very high pitches may be notated in the treble clef. The viola also may use the treble clef for very high notes.
