I think you need to consider more than just treble or bass clef (G clef and F
clef were archaic terms when I was in school in 1970… :-D). The real question
is one of transposition -
If you're just looking at C instruments - Piano, normally tuned guitar and
bass, Flute, Xylophone, or megaphone (voice), you'll need more that the simple
song-book sheet music. Alto Sax is Eb, Tenor Sax, Clarinet, Trumpet are all
Bb... Unless Sam can sight-transpose or has a C Piccolo Trumpet, his music
will need to be transposed for a Bb instrument.
Since music is what I did before I became an engineer, I thought I'd at least
remind you of that little issue :-). Sorry I can't be there, but It's still
not possible to be on 2 continents (let alone 2 cities) at the same time.
