All music is written upon, between and around 5 lines called a Stave or Staff.

Every piece of music is divided up into equal measures by vertical lines called Bars. Each bar must contain a certain number of notes or rests, or both, regulated by figures at the beginning of the music called the Time Signature.A Double Barline is used to end a part of or whole of a composition.

An Introduction To NotationLedger Lines
The stem of a note on the middle line can go up or down but normally lower note stems go up and higher go down.
To provide for notes which lie above or below the stave, short additional lines called ledger (or leger) lines are used. Each note above or below the stave has its own line or lines.To avoid many ledger/leger lines the sign 8, or 8va, can be used above or below the notes meaning the notes will be played an Octave higher or lower than written.
