A-flat
The note is A flat.
the major pentatonic scale ( notes played are 1st note or "Root" note, then the 2nd, 3rd, 5th and the 6th) differs from the the minor pentatonic (1st, 3rd flatted, 4th, 5th, and 7th flatted) D major pentatonic: D, E, F#, A, and B (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 6th notes of the D scale.) D minor pentatonic: D, F, G, A, and C (1st, 3rd flatted, 4th, 5th, and 7th flatted) (D =1st note , 3rd flatted = F (F# becomes F when flatted), G = 4th note, A = 5th note and 6th note flatted = C (C# becomes C when flatted). Hope that is helpful.. Same pattern applys to other notes for creating major and minor pentatonic scales.
The parallel minor of F-sharp major is F-sharp minor. A parallel minor key is the one with the same tonic note.
The parallel minor key is that which has the same tonic note. So, the parallel minor to F major is F minor.
The note above F can be labelled as F sharp or G flat.
A major interval is when the higher note is in the scale of the bottom note. Example. C to E is a major (3rd) interval because the note F is in the C major scale, but A to G is not a major interval because G is not in the A major scale, if it was A to G# then it would be a major (7th) interval because G# is in the A major scale. A minor interval (natural minor, no raised 7th) is exactly the same but you can think of it in 2 ways 1. the upper note is in the minor scale of the lower note e.g. A to F is a minor (6th) interval because the note F is in the A minor scale (not A major). 2. The upper note is a semitone down from the major scale of the lower note. Eg. G to F is a minor (7th) interval, because G to F# is a major (7th) interval and F is a semi tone down from F#, it is therefore minor. Intervals that are Unisons, 4ths, 5ths, and Octaves or 8ths are neither major or minor because the upper note is in both the minor and major scale of the lower note, they are called 'perfect'
Any note which has the word 'sharp' in it is always a semitone above the given note.
Find any group of 3 black notes, place your thumb on the 1st black note, your 3rd on the A key and your pinky on the C♯, play all 3 notes together then you get the F♯ minor chord.
E, F#, G, A, B, C, D#, E (F# is the black note after F; D# is the black note after D)
The III note is A. However, the 3rd note in the chord is the V note. That is C. The F major chord is F, A, C.
A chord is classified as diminished when it contains a diminished 5th above the tonic note.
The note names in a major chord and a minor chord are the same. The only difference is the flattened third. F major chord is F A C where f minor is F Ab C.
