The Bass Clef Scales
Here you'll find the bass clef scales - the major scales - with their key signatures. Sometimes the bass clef can be more difficult to remember than the treble clef. You'll find the scales with sharps in their key signatures first and scales with flats in their key signatures second.
Names of Bass Clef Lines & Spaces
If you're having trouble remembering the names of the lines and spaces, these are the sayings I use:
Bass Clef Lines: Great Big Ducks Fly Away
Bass Clef Spaces: All Cows Eat Grass
"G" is the lowest line and "A" is the lowest space.
