Clef - Onbukigo (English notation) clef English

A notational symbol that defines the relationship between the position of a note on the staff and the pitch of the note. In the staff notation, there are the treble clef, bass clef, and C clef, and the lines that coincide with the center of each symbol on the staff represent G, F, and C, respectively. In the West, clefs began to be used around the 11th century, with the letters F, which corresponds to the current bass clef, and C, which corresponds to the current C clef. In the 15th century, as the range of notes used in music expanded with the development of polyphony music, the G clef, which corresponds to the current treble clef, began to be used. In the 18th century, the custom of placing the F clef on the left hand and the G clef on the right hand in keyboard music developed, and as a result, the F clef = bass clef came to be called the bass clef, and the G clef = treble clef came to be called the treble clef. The C clef (C clef) is currently used as the alto clef for the viola and the tenor clef for the cello and tenor trombone.

Japanese:

記譜法上の記号で、音符の譜表上の位置と音の高さの関係を規定するもの。五線記譜法においてはト音記号、ヘ音記号、ハ音記号があり、譜表上で各記号の中心と一致する線が、それぞれト、ヘ、ハ音である。西洋においては、音部記号は11世紀ごろから用いられ始めたが、それは現在のヘ音記号にあたるFと、現在のハ音記号にあたるCの文字であった。15世紀に入って、ポリフォニー音楽の発展とともに楽曲に用いられる音域が拡大するにつれ、現在のト音記号にあたるG記号が用いられるようになる。18世紀に入って鍵盤(けんばん)楽曲においてF記号を左手に、G記号を右手にあてる習慣ができ、その結果、F記号=ヘ音記号は低音部記号、G記号=ト音記号は高音部記号ともよばれるようになる。ハ音記号(C記号)は、現在ではアルト記号としてビオラに、テノール記号としてチェロやテノール・トロンボーンに用いられている。
