G4 on the Baritone (treble clef)
Written G4 — sounds concert F3. Tap the diagram to hear it.
Plays the real sound: written G4 sounds concert F3 on baritone (treble clef).
G4 is an open note on the 3rd partial: no valves down, so the lip alone picks the slot. It sounds concert F3. The 3rd partial tends a little sharp; relax the aperture rather than pushing. Treble-clef baritone reads like trumpet but sounds an octave lower, so aim for a dark, round sound here.
