Bass clef reading

I would like to make my bass clef reading as automatic as my treble clef reading. I spent most of my early years learning to read through violin, and that treble dominance makes my bass clef reading subservient to it as I learn piano, now at a later point in my life. For example, I will mistakenly default to playing a note in the left hand bass clef part on the keyboard as if it had been written in treble clef. To correct, I am in the inefficient habit of transposing up a third. How would you approach this issue through an active process (rather than passively waiting for it to automatically correct at some point in the unknown future)?

  • There is an app for ios called Tenuto. You can make an note identification exercise using only bass clef and train a lot. Maybe you can find another alternative to tenuto if you don’t use Apple, it is just a suggestion

      Eduardo Hiramoto Thank you very much for the suggestion. I think Tenuto drills will be useful and very handy.
