A treble is a tone whose frequency or range is at the higher end of human hearing. In terms of music, it refers to ‘high notes’ or is the highest part in a composition that has three parts.
The best examples of treble sounds are the tones of guitars, piccolos etc. Both of them are important instruments. They mostly have very high pitched sounds. The frequencies range from 2.048 kHz – 16.384 kHz.
A treble clef or a G clef is used to notate such high sounding instruments like the violin, guitar, mandolin, flute, oboe, English horn, clarinet, saxophone, horn, and trumpet.
In sound production, treble control is used to change the volume of treble notes relative to those of the middle and bass frequency ranges.
