This is the most favored set of notes by the students from Ludian Piano Studio : Note Master (3) space FACE notes! They are easy to remember and their places. They are space notes and each space notes can spell FACE altogether.
Can you name the note which is on the second space from the bottom? It is the second letter of the word FACE, and yes, it is A.
The bass staff has FACE, too. As you know, since bass clef is for the lower notes, and my students call those FACE notes on the bass staff, the “low–FACE” notes. Check for yourself.
Let’s try this: what is the name of the note on the second space from the bottom of the bass staff? Yes, it is a “low–FACE” note, and it’s C. As you see, It is very important to check the clef to decide where FACE count begin with.
Get to know these FACE notes with the flashcards below. Always check the clef sign first!
