Musical notes

A major

A major (or the key of A) is a major scale based on A, with the pitches A, B, sharp, D, E, sharp, and sharp.

A minor

A minor is a minor scale based on A, with the pitches A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. Its key signature has no flats and no sharps.

See A (musical note) and A minor

A440 (also known as Stuttgart pitch) is the musical pitch corresponding to an audio frequency of 440 Hz, which serves as a tuning standard for the musical note of A above middle C, or A4 in scientific pitch notation.

See A (musical note) and A440 (pitch standard)

Acoustic scale

In music, the acoustic scale, overtone scale, Lydian dominant scale (Lydian 7 scale), or the Mixolydian 4 scale is a seven-note synthetic scale.

See A (musical note) and Acoustic scale

Aeolian dominant scale

The Aeolian dominant scale (Aeolian 3 scale), Mixolydian 6 scale, descending melodic major scale, or Hindu scale is the fifth mode of the ascending melodic minor scale.

See A (musical note) and Aeolian dominant scale

Aeolian mode

The Aeolian mode is a musical mode or, in modern usage, a diatonic scale also called the natural minor scale.

See A (musical note) and Aeolian mode

Altered scale

In jazz, the altered scale, altered dominant scale, or Super Locrian scale (Locrian 4 scale) is a seven-note scale that is a dominant scale where all non-essential tones have been altered.

See A (musical note) and Altered scale

Baroque

The Baroque is a Western style of architecture, music, dance, painting, sculpture, poetry, and other arts that flourished from the early 17th century until the 1750s.

C (musical note)

C or Do is the first note of the C major scale, the third note of the A minor scale (the relative minor of C major), and the fourth note (G, A, B, C) of the Guidonian hand, commonly pitched around 261.63 Hz. A (musical note) and c (musical note) are musical notes.

Concert pitch

Concert pitch is the pitch reference to which a group of musical instruments are tuned for a performance.

Diatonic scale

In music theory, a diatonic scale is any heptatonic scale that includes five whole steps (whole tones) and two half steps (semitones) in each octave, in which the two half steps are separated from each other by either two or three whole steps, depending on their position in the scale.

See A (musical note) and Diatonic scale

Dorian ♭2 scale

The Dorian 2 scale, also known as the Phrygian 6 scale, is the second mode of the jazz minor scale (or the ascending melodic minor scale).

See A (musical note) and Dorian ♭2 scale

Dorian mode

Dorian mode or Doric mode can refer to three very different but interrelated subjects: one of the Ancient Greek harmoniai (characteristic melodic behaviour, or the scale structure associated with it); one of the medieval musical modes; or—most commonly—one of the modern modal diatonic scales, corresponding to the piano keyboard's white notes from D to D, or any transposition of itself.

Enharmonic equivalence

In music, two written notes have enharmonic equivalence if they produce the same pitch but are notated differently. A (musical note) and enharmonic equivalence are musical notes.

Europe

Europe is a continent located entirely in the Northern Hemisphere and mostly in the Eastern Hemisphere.

Frequency

Frequency (symbol f), most often measured in hertz (symbol: Hz), is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time.

See A (musical note) and Frequency

Half diminished scale

The half diminished scale is a seven-note musical scale.

See A (musical note) and Half diminished scale

Helmholtz pitch notation

Helmholtz pitch notation is a system for naming musical notes of the Western chromatic scale.

See A (musical note) and Helmholtz pitch notation

Hertz

The hertz (symbol: Hz) is the unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to one event (or cycle) per second.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental, international standard development organization composed of representatives from the national standards organizations of member countries.

Jazz minor scale

The jazz minor scale or ascending melodic minor scale is a derivative of the melodic minor scale, except only the ascending form of the scale is used.

See A (musical note) and Jazz minor scale

Locrian mode

The Locrian mode is the seventh mode of the major scale.

Lydian augmented scale

In music, the Lydian augmented scale (Lydian 5 scale) is the third mode of the ascending melodic minor scale.

See A (musical note) and Lydian augmented scale

Lydian mode

The modern Lydian mode is a seven-tone musical scale formed from a rising pattern of pitches comprising three whole tones, a semitone, two more whole tones, and a final semitone.

See A (musical note) and Lydian mode

Mixolydian mode

Mixolydian mode may refer to one of three things: the name applied to one of the ancient Greek harmoniai or tonoi, based on a particular octave species or scale; one of the medieval church modes; or a modern musical mode or diatonic scale, related to the medieval mode.

Musical note

In music, notes are distinct and isolatable sounds that act as the most basic building blocks for nearly all of music.

Octave

In music, an octave (octavus: eighth) or perfect octave (sometimes called the '''diapason''') is a series of eight notes occupying the interval between (and including) two notes, one having twice the frequency of vibration of the other. A (musical note) and octave are musical notes.

This is a list of the fundamental frequencies in hertz (cycles per second) of the keys of a modern 88-key standard or 108-key extended piano in twelve-tone equal temperament, with the 49th key, the fifth A (called A4), tuned to 440 Hz (referred to as A440).

Scientific pitch notation

Scientific pitch notation (SPN), also known as American standard pitch notation (ASPN) and international pitch notation (IPN), is a method of specifying musical pitch by combining a musical note name (with accidental if needed) and a number identifying the pitch's octave.

See A (musical note) and Scientific pitch notation

Semitone

A semitone, also called a minor second, half step, or a half tone, is the smallest musical interval commonly used in Western tonal music, and it is considered the most dissonant when sounded harmonically.
