Evolution of the Treble Clef:
In early written music (before 1750) the treble clef could be found drawn on different lines of the staff. G on the first line was known as "French style". on the second line it was known as "Italian style". The practice of having a variety of clef positions in old music came from a desire to avoid ledger lines.
