So, to the right of the white note A, you would find a black note. This note is called ‘A sharp’, the ‘sharp note’ variation of the original note, and it raises the note by one semitone.

   What are sharps and flats in music?

   • Sharps and flats are used to name specific music notes. They're also used to describe the action of changing the pitch of a note. I assume you're already familiar with the musical alphabet; the notes A B C D E F G. Those 7 notes are enough to make 95% of music (as long as we only play in C major).

   Sharps (#) raise the note by a semitone, whilst flats (b)lower the note by a semitone. Normally this will move a note from a black to a white note (or vice versa). However, in some cases you will notice that if a movement of a semitone is between 2 white notes (e.g. E-F and B-C). So, in this example below you will see that the note “C” is raised a ...

   There is a big mistake which everyone seems to make when it comes to sharps and flats. And it is this… Because a note is called G sharp or G Flat people assume that the sharp/flat symbol goes after the note (seems logical!). But the symbol goes BEFORE THE NOTE. A really simple thing, but you will avoid so many problems if you just remember the symb...

   • MAJOR SCALES. Major scales sound “happy” and you may recognize them as the do-re-mi scale. These are the first scales you should learn. All major scales follow the same formula of whole and half steps: W-W-H-W-W-W-H.
   • MINOR SCALES. There are three types of minor scales: natural minor, harmonic minor, and melodic minor. Every minor key has a relative major key and relative keys share the same key signature (number of sharps and flats).
   • CHROMATIC SCALE. The chromatic scale is a fun scale to learn because it’s easy to play fast and can sound very impressive. All we’re doing is playing all twelve tones in an octave.
   • PENTATONIC SCALE. Main Lesson: The Mighty Pentatonic Scale. The pentatonic scale is a useful tool for improvisation because it’s rarely dissonant.
