Interval (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) |
 | | Intervals may also be labelled according to their diatonic functionality, as is commonly done for tonal music, and according to the number of notes they span in a diatonic scale. |
 | | Intervals may also be described as narrow and wide or small and large, consonant and dissonant or stable and unstable, weak and strong, simple and compound, vertical (or harmonic) and linear (or melodic), and, if linear as steps or skips. |
 | | Interval cycles, "unfold a single recurrent interval in a series that closes with a return to the initial pitch class", and are notated by George Perle using the letter "C", for cycle, with an interval class integer to distinguish the interval. |
