What is concert pitch and how does it affect musical instruments and performances?

Concert pitch is the standard tuning used by musicians to ensure that all instruments are in harmony with each other. It affects musical instruments by determining the frequency at which they are tuned. When instruments are not tuned to concert pitch, it can lead to discordance and affect the overall quality of a performance.

How many steps from a concert scale to major scale for a Eb instrument?

If I'm correct Eb instruments are a minor third above concert pitch instruments. This means go up 3 intervals and down a half step, or up 3 half steps if you prefer. This is transposing from concert to Eb.


Why are the scales not in concert?

Transposing instruments are generally families of instruments, with each family having several instruments sounding at different pitches. There are usually soprano, alto, tenor and other voices in the family of instruments. Using saxophones as the example, it is advantageous for a player to be able to change to a different instrument in the family, say alto to tenor, without learning an entirely different set of fingerings. If all of the saxes were scored in concert pitch, the Eb instruments ( alto, baritone, sopranino, and contrabass) and Bb instruments (soprano, tenor and bass) would have different fingerings. To avoid that, music for the different instruments is transposed. When the saxophones were first patented, Adolph Sax intended for there to be two families of saxes, the Bb and and Eb family for use in military bands, and the F and C instruments for use in orchestras. The Bb and Eb instruments were extremely useful in bands and they caught on pretty quickly. The F and C instruments never caught on in orchestras, but if they had, the C instruments would have been in concert pitch (or even octaves from concert pitch).

What is a Concert F on trumpet?

A concert F on a trumpet is the G note. Since a trumpet is pitched in Bb, trumpet players will always play one note above the concert pitch. Along with that trumpet players will always play in a different key from the concert pitch. Trumpet players will add two sharps to the concert pitch. i.e. If the concert pitch is Eb, 3 flats, then trumpet players will play in the key of F, 1 flat. trumpetman52

When an organ player tells the tenor saxophone player to play the song in b flat so it can be in tune with the organ player how should the song be played by tenor saxophone player?

The tenor sax always plays a whole tone above concert pitch instruments like the organ. If the organist is playing in C then the tenor sax plays in D. This is because when you play lin key of C on the tenor sax you are playing in Bb concert. So you always have to raise your pitch by a whole tone in order to be in tune with the concert pitch instruments
