The note pitches remain the same. The only difference is that the clef, and therefore which line/space the note shows up changes. Eg. an "E" that is on the second ledger line above the bass clef staff would be on the bottom line of the treble clef staff if you changed a staff with bass clef to treble clef. Make sense?

Sherry, it makes absolute sense, thank you. Excuse my beginner's use of expressions - "PITCH" was the word I wanted - I have only just joined the Notation family with a trial membership. I am in my 80th year, and bought a Yamaha Clavinova 503 last week. My piano experience dates from my teenage years in the '40's up to Grade 4 only, so there has to be a long learning curve.

No problem at all - there's always a lot of attendant "jargon" in any area of life I don't know it all yet, either

That's wonderful that you've gotten yourself a nice Clavinova and are pursuing piano. I hope that you find either Notation Musician or Notation Composer (not sure which you're trying out) to be useful in that endeavor.

Merry Christmas!
