![]() ![]() The 4 th and 5 th can be diminished, perfect or augmented. All other intervals have two kinds: minor and major. If you don't already know that, just trust me for now, they are. ![]() The intervals of a 4 th and a 5 th are special and different from the others and you'll see why. Why do we stop there? Well, the 8 th is the same note we started with but now an octave higher, so the intervals will repeat from this point on. If we had a minor 3 rd, we would have arrived at the B flat.Ī musical scale contains 7 different notes, so we consider 7 intervals: So in this case, the major 3 rd brings us to the B natural. Minor thirds have 3 semi-tones and Major thirds have 4 semi-tones. Now that we are in B, the word major tells you if wether we are looking for the B natural or B flat.Īs we'll learn, thirds can be minor or major. So if you start on, let’s say, the note G, a 3 rd above will be 3 notes after The number 3 describes how many notes you moved. Let’s use a major 3 rd as an example (don't worry, we'll soon look into thirds in more detail). The distance between two notes is described like this: 1) you check how many steps or notes you moved and 2) the number of semi-tones you used. Take the note C: the distance between C and C# is one semi-tone. One semi-tone can most easily be seen on a keyboard: it is the smallest distance between two notes in that system (there are smaller intervals in music, but we largely ignore them in the western classical tradition). As long as you know how long an inch is, you should know long is a foot. Semi-tone is to an interval what an inch is to a foot. ![]() For that reason, in this post we'll use letter names. All you need to remember is that A is La and you're good to go. However, using letter names we already know that B comes after A! So a 2 nd (or the second note) above D, for example is obviously E. If you have never heard of these names you would just have to memorize that Re comes after Do, Mi comes after Re and so on. Nikki Haley isn’t in her prime - sorry - when a woman is considered to be in her prime in her 20s and 30s, maybe 40s.There are many advantages for using letter names A, B, C when referring to intervals instead of the traditional Do, Re, Mi. “She says politicians, or something, are not in their prime. “All the talk about age makes me uncomfortable - I think it’s a wrong road to go down,” Lemon began. But Lemon’s attempt to attack one type of ageism quickly went awry. Lemon was trying to critique Haley’s statements that political leaders over 75 should undergo competency testing. Lemon’s sexist remarks created an uproar among CNN’s female employees, many of whom live with the anxiety of being told they are past their best-by date if a wrinkle or two shows up on the screen. In a highly unusual move, CNN Chief Executive Chris Licht told staff in a memo announcing Lemon’s return that the anchor would undergo “formal training” - most likely diversity, equity and inclusion instruction from parent company Warner Bros. His unexpected absence from the program on Monday led to speculation that he would be suspended or fired. The veteran anchor returns to “CNN This Morning” on Wednesday, his first appearance since last week when he made offensive comments about when a woman is past her “prime,” while speaking about 51-year-old Republican former South Carolina Gov. Don Lemon is getting another chance at CNN. ![]()
