Raises it by a semitone

∙ 12y agoDouble sharp occurs when the location where a sharp or flat is supposed to be is covered by another sharp or flat. Lets say you wanted to play C but somehow B and C# were a part of the key. So on the C space you would be C# on the B line you would put B# and on the A Space you would be A##. Strange example but you get the idea.

∙ 11y agoDouble flats are used to lower a natural note by a full tone.
Abb = G natural
Bbb = A natural
Cbb = B flat, NOT B natural since there is only a half step between B and C
Dbb = C natural
Ebb = D natural
Fbb = E flat, again because E if only a semitone below F
Gbb = F natural

What happens when you raise a sharp?
It becomes a double sharp. For example, F double sharp is the natural note G.
Can g sharp or a flat be called a double sharp of double flat?
no, g sharp is the only "landlocked" note, which means it can only be called g sharp or a flat, not any double sharps or double flats.
How cone there is no double sharp or double flat enharmonic for G sharp or A flat?
It's because that note is the only one two half-steps away from another flat/sharp note in both directions.
What direction and how many half steps does a double sharp move a note?
A double sharp raises a natural note up a tone - so lets take for example F double sharp. F double sharp is one whole tone higher than F which is enharmonically equivalent to G natural.
What does an x mean when it is placed on top of a note on sheet music?
Example: If note in question is a sharp, then the "x" changes it to a double sharp.
What happens when you raise a sharp?
It becomes a double sharp. For example, F double sharp is the natural note G.
What is the D sharp major scale?
Technically speaking, D sharp major is: D#, E#, F* (F double Sharp,) G#, A#, B#, C* (C double sharp) D#. ***note: a double sharp (*) means that the note sounds a whole step above the principal note. For example: F*=G.
Can g sharp or a flat be called a double sharp of double flat?
no, g sharp is the only "landlocked" note, which means it can only be called g sharp or a flat, not any double sharps or double flats.

A double sharp raises a natural note up a tone - so lets take for example F double sharp. F double sharp is one whole tone higher than F which is enharmonically equivalent to G natural.
How cone there is no double sharp or double flat enharmonic for G sharp or A flat?
It's because that note is the only one two half-steps away from another flat/sharp note in both directions.
What does an x mean when it is placed on top of a note on sheet music?
Example: If note in question is a sharp, then the "x" changes it to a double sharp.
How come there is no double sharp or double flat enharmonic for G sharp or A flat?
Being that it's a whole-step away from another sharp or flat note in both directions, there is no possible double-sharp/flat spelling for it.
What does the natural sign do to a sharp or flat in music?
A natural and a sharp before a note means that the note was previously a double-sharp and is now just a sharp.
Which is the only note which cannot be written either as a double sharp or double flat?
G #/ Ab
How do you play double sharp?
A double sharp is a way to raise a note one whole step. On the piano, this is done by playing the note two keys above the natural note.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To double sharp a note - all you do is move up from one white key to the next, AS LONG as there is a black key in between the two white keys (e.g. F and G). If you try to double sharp a note with no black key directly to the right, you'll have to skip over that white key and play the black key to the right of the "skipped" white key (e.g. E and F).The same procedure is done when double flatting a natural note.

What note is played for f double flat?
E flat (or D sharp)
