 Leger line - Open Encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
A leger line (sometimes spelled ledger line) is a tool of musical notation to express notes that do not fall on the regular lines or spaces of the musical staff.
A short line (slightly longer than the note) is drawn parallel to the lines on the staff, corresponding to where the staff line would be if the note were in range (see Figure 1).
Notes on more than three or four leger lines off the staff are usually considered too hard to read; this is usually handled by using 8va notation or switching clefs.

A ledger line is a tool of musical notation to express notes that do not fall on the regular lines or spaces of the musical staff.
Notes on more than three or four ledger lines off the staff are usually considered too hard to read, and if there are several measures of them, it is usually preferred to switch clef or use 8va notation.
For example, on the clarinet the player would rather see leger lines for the chalumeau register instead of the bass clef, while flutists prefer leger lines for the higher notes instead of 8va notation.

The two dots of the F clef surround the line that represents the note F. The most common use of the F clef is the bass clef, which places F on the 2nd line from the top of the staff; the name "F clef" is frequently used to mean the bass clef.
The C clef on the bottom line means soprano clef which works for violin and the clarinet in A. The 1st line C clef used also to be commonly employed until about 100 years ago for the soprano voice when vocal polyphony was displayed with each voice on its own staff.

 Staff (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The musical staff can be thought of as a graph of pitch with respect to time; pitches are roughly given by their vertical position on the staff, and notes on the left are played before notes to their right.
Notes which fall outside the range of the staff are placed on or between ledger lines, lines the width of the note they need to hold, added above or below the staff.
Exactly which notes are represented by which staff positions is determined by a clef placed at the beginning of the staff; the clef identifies a particular line as a specific note, and all other notes are determined relative to that line.
