The treble clef is also known as the G clef.
The treble clef is also known as the G clef. To understand why it is called the G clef, we need to know a bit about musical notation.
In written music, the clef is a symbol that is placed at the beginning of a staff (the set of horizontal lines and spaces) to indicate the pitch of the notes that will be written. Different clefs are used for different instruments and voices.
The treble clef is specifically used for higher-pitched instruments, such as the violin, flute, and right hand of the piano. It also represents the higher range of the human singing voice.
The treble clef looks like a stylized letter "G" with a swirl on its tail. This swirl curls around the line corresponding to the note G above middle C, thus indicating that this line represents the note G. This is why the treble clef is also called the G clef.
So, the correct answer is G clef.
