What are the notes on a c concert scale on the clarinet?
Concert C is the clarinet's written D, so the notes for the major scale are D E F# G A B C# D
Is the scale the same as the key?
I can't answer that directly but the scale is the group of notes written out in order with any sharps or flats that is necessary to the scale. The key is the scale that a piece of music is based on. So, in some ways they are, but they are not exactly the same.
Same as a B-flat cornet. Brass instruments, when transposing, are always referred to in a flat key rather than sharp.
What is the interval from an E flat to B natural?
augmented 5th, as e flat to b flat is a perfect 5th and b is a semitone above b flat, making the interval augmented
How do you find a key from a key signature in flats?
The easiest way is to consult a circle of fifths. As a band director, I require my students to keep one with them in their folder.
The second simple method is this. C has 0 flats, memorize that. Again, memorize that F has 1 flat.
Finally. After that, the name of the key signature will be the penultimate flat (that is the second to the last flat in the key signature.)
As an example, if there are 4 flats in your key signature they are: Bb Eb Ab and Db. They will always be listed in that order. Ab is the penultimate, and thusly this would be the key of Ab.
What note is a down whole step from c?
B flat.
I picture it on the piano, one key is one semi-tone or half a tone. Two of these makes one whole tone, or one whole step. One half step down from C would be the note B, another half step would then go to B flat. That is one whole step.
What is the enharmonic spelling of g sharp?
A flat. Because this note is between G and A, you can go up from G (make it a sharp) or down from A.
Which key signature has the maximum number of sharps in a minor key?
That would be the key of A-sharp minor, the relative to C-sharp major, which contains seven sharps. The leading tone is G-double-sharp.
Is e flat to f flat a whole step?
No, it's a half step. E to F is a half step, and if both are flat, the interval remains the same.
To convert kilonewtons (kN) to tonnes (metric tons), you can use the conversion factor that 1 kN is approximately equal to 0.10197 tonnes. Therefore, 160 kN is approximately 16.3 tonnes.
What key would a b flat clarinet be in when piano is e minor?
F# minor, which has 3 sharps in the key signature.
How many notes made up the pentatonic scale?
A pentatonic scale is a musical scale with five notes per octave.
The key aspects of Shangri -LA hotals and resort that differentiate this company from the major hotal organization are room types, star rating and room types.
How many sharps are in the key of B flat major?
There are two flats in the key of B flat major: B flat and E flat.
Are a b flat concert scale and a C major scale the same thing?
Concert B-flat and written C are the same thing on a B-flat transposing instrument, such as a clarinet, trumpet, or tenor saxophone.
