-- Posted by Anonymous at 12:14 pm on July 11, 2008 i played the piano on and off for a few years (taking lessons) and now im just getting back into it and on the current song im working on I've learned the whole thing with the right hand part only. now i want to add the left hand. but, there are three lines. like the first line of the song has a g clef and all the notes obviously and then under that there are two more rows. one with a g clef next to it and one with an f clef. which one of those is the left hands notes? the one with the g clef has wayyyy more notes than the other so im guessing its that but i always thought the f clef indicated the left hand. help ? lol -- Posted by EventerChick at 12:18 pm on July 11, 2008 Generally left hand is indicated with a bass clef(f clef), and right hand is treble clef(g clef). -- Posted by Just Waiting Here at 12:26 pm on July 11, 2008 Does this happen to be a vocal piece with words to sing?  When there are three lines, normally the top one is something other than the piano portion.  The bottom half should be the left and right hand of the piano part. If this is a vocal piece, the top line would most likely represent what the singer would sing.  The middle line would be the right hand for the piano, and the bottom line would be the left hand. I'm not sure if this is what you mean or not... -- Posted by Arguia at 9:47 am on July 14, 2008 In piano music if there are three lines the top line is for voice, the second for the right hand and the third for the left. The left hand does not always play in the bass clef, although it normally does. -- Posted by Scui at 4:46 am on July 25, 2008 Could you scan it in and upload it here? Like everyone else said, the top line is likely to be the singing part, or at least the part of another instrument. What aspect of playing are you having trouble with?
