Yes. That note would be flat (or sharp, depending how you look at it) throughout the whole piece, unless there is a change of key.

What difference would be heard if the frequency of the wave is increased?

the frequency of a wave changes the pitch of the of the sound, a lower frequency (less frequent vibrations of the speaker) means lower pitch (bass notes) a higher frequency increases the pitch (treble notes) the formula is: speed = frequency x wavelength note: if you double the frequency of a sound you half the wavelength (assuming the medium through which the sound travels is constant, thus the speed of the sound is constant) doubling the frequency also increases the pitch by one octave... the note "Middle C" is 440 Hz "C" one octave higher is 880 Hz and "C" one octave lower is 220 Hz all of the "C" notes in the musical scale are "C" below human hearing range 13.75 Hz Lowest "C" 27.5 Hz (Just within average human hearing range) "C" One Octave Higher 55 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 110 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 220 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 440 Hz also known as "Middle C" "C" One more Octave Higher 880 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 1760 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 3520 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 14080 Hz (The Highest "C" Note the average human can hear) "C" One more Octave Higher 28160 Hz (outside of human hearing range but it really annoys dogs)


When you go and octave higher on the piano do you write it the same if you were an octave lower when you are composing a song?

While I do not understand your question, I will try to answer it! You have two clefts, the treble or G cleft and the bass of F cleft. (There are also special clefts which we will not get into.) Together they make up the Grand Staff. OK so far? Those are the notes you play. If the music is above or below the cleft, you will see ledger lines. Those are little lines above or below the cleft lines. Now, Say the composer wants to use the notes at the top of the keyboard for some unknown reason. You will see a little 8 above the Treble cleft signature. That is telling you to shift up an octave. Then the bottom ledger line will no longer mean the E above middle C but the E one octave above that. If you look at a lot of choral music, you will see an 8 below the Treble Cleft Signature on the tenor line. That means the tenors should sing the same notes as the Treble Cleft only one octave lower. You could even put a 16 under the Bass Cleft Signature if you were writing music for a 5 string double bass. It can reach the lowest note on the piano. How else would you indicate it? Can you imagine the ledger lines? I would get confused!


What is one octave lower than a really high E on the alto saxophone?

The really high E would be the E written three ledger lines above the staff. One octave lower will be the E written in the top space of the staff.


Where do you play G broken chord one octave higher?

Count eight notes up from and including the original G. You are then at the G one octave higher. Build your G broken chord up from this G, just as you would do from your original G.


How do you play top D on an alto sax?

To play a low D, play all three buttons for your left hand, and all three buttons for your right hand as well. To play an octave higher, push down the octave key (your left thumb) as well as the three buttons on each hand. To play an octave higher than that, play only the first palm key on your left hand, and the octave key.

What is the transposing effect of going an octave lower on a music piece?

Not sure what you're question's asking, but transposing music is taking an existing piece of music in one key and putting it into another key note for note. So it would be the same melody in a different key. The effect of sounding a melody an octave lower would be to make it "deeper" sounding. Going from the sound of a woman's voice to a man's voice would be the most obvious example. On a keyboard, moving to the left 7 white notes would make the sound an octave lower. The sound of a 'cello is approximately and octave lower than a viola. The sound of a double bass is approximately an octave lower than a 'cello. The sound of a tuba is approximately an octave lower than a tenor trombone. The sound of a flute is approimately an octave lower than a piccolo. Lower sounds tend to be less brilliant to our ear and more mellow than higher sounds generally.


How much is an autographed baseball card worth?

Autographed baseball cardsIn general, collectors of baseball cards would rather have a baseball card without the signature. The signature would be considered as a flaw in the condition of the card and will lower the value. If the signature has a lower value than the card it will lower the value of the card. The un-signed card will have a higher value.

Is a piccolo flute a sting instrument?

No, a piccolo is just (technically) a smaller flute. It doesn't have as many keys (for lower notes), and plays everything an octave higher than a flute would.


The best things to get autographed?

Signatures will vary in price with different items signed and how well the item displays the signature. Baseballs are the most common, and preferred by collectors because of it's connection to the game, low cost, availability and it displays the signature well. The signed baseball represents the average price for a signature because it is the most collected. Autograph photos typically sell at about 40-60 percent the price of a baseball with bats, uniform Jersey's and equipment selling at a higher price due to the higher cost of the item, rarity and display but a signed baseball would be easier to sell. Baseball cards are a poor choice to have signed, and the signature could lower the collectible value of the card. In general, collectors of baseball cards would rather have a baseball card without the signature. The signature would be considered as a flaw in the condition of the card and will lower the value. If the signature has a lower value than the card it will lower the value of the card. The un-signed card will have a higher value.

What is the value of a 1990 signed Ken Griffey jr card?

A Ken Griffey Jr. signed baseball card is worth between $30.-$40. Prices may vary based on condition, and the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature. Signatures that have not been authenticated could sell at half the market value or less. A ken Griffey Jr Rookie card could have a higher value without the signature.

What is the value increase of a signed baseball card vs regualer card?

Signed Baseball Cards vs Un-SignedA signature does not increase the collectible value of a baseball card. Once a card is signed the signature (not the card) becomes the collectible, and holds the bulk of the value. The baseball card is used to display the signature, and the value will be effected by how well the signature is displayed.In general, collectors of baseball cards would rather have a baseball card without the signature. The signature would be considered as a flaw in the condition of the card and will lower the value of the card as a collectible. If the signature has a lower value than the card it will lower the value of the card. The un-signed card will have a higher value.This is why it is not a good idea to have an expensive card signed. Signatures have a higher value on a baseball than on a card. Signed baseball cards sell at about 10-30 percent the value of a signed baseball. The percentage will vary based on the popularity and rarity of the signature.
