Why notation using multiple bass or treble clefs?

New to this notation. Always thought notation you have a treble clef (middle c above) and bass clef staff (middle C below).

No i have encountered exercises that either have 2 treble clefs or 2 bass clef staffs. Do you still play left and right hands on either case?

No sure i understand why not h=just use conventional treble and bass clef for right and left hand? :?:

Hello Ronny,

You probably figured this out already, but PGS has a lot of early exercises that utilize only one hand. So, when you see two treble clefs, play the first line your right hand, then play the second with your right hand.

Easiest way to see what to do is to press PLAY on an exercise and watch the cursor traverse the music.

Good luck.
