Comfortable notes in a key In Britain cadence V-I is called the perfect cadence, opposite to the imperfect cadence -which 'unresolves' I-V. |

Why does a piano have only one or two strings per note in the bass register, but three for other registers? I should have put "The fatter bass strings INDIRECTLY move a lot more air" etc. Thanks. |

Figuring out the difference between major and relative minor scales? Dr Mayhem, true enough. Most songs do stay in the same key,and in one that does change rather than modulate, the change is often a dramatic move with an 'odd sounding' chord to signal this. Not certain if moving between relatives contitutes a key change - possibly just a modulation ? |

Why shouldn't I put electric guitar strings on my acoustic guitar? Are you stating that an 011 acoustic string will be better than a 011 electric string for top string on an acoustic guitar ? How will it be better ? |

Diminished Intervals Glad to help ! As I stated, technically, min 2nd is + 1tone - 1 semitone, so, 1 semitone up. However, it needs to be designated as the next letter name, surely, as in from D#, it couldn't be called D##, and needs to be written E. Augmented 2nd =1 tone + 1 semitone.Thus from D# it is E##. Not F# or Gb as lots of guitarists would vouch ! Trouble is, guitars don't have black notes........... |

Why is the recorder a good instrument to start with? ohmi - the handedness question would be an interesting one to post. For other instruments also. Some people just HAVE to do things in a left-handed way, so if that suits them, so be it. Yes, I agree it may hinder them later in their career, but consider players like Hendrix. No, I don't think he was brilliant on the recorder........... |

Why is the recorder a good instrument to start with? Most children (original question ) would be using a descant recorder first. If the bell part is made to be movable, I can't see any other reason for this. |

Diminished Intervals jj- a minor second is one tone up, minus a semitone, so from D# it'll be Fb won't it? An augmented second will be D# - E##.Sounds strange using these terms, but it matters when it comes to writing the notes on a stave. I get awfully confused when, for example, reading a chord chart in E maj, and someone has written an Abm chord. |
