    In music, an octave (Latin: octavus: eighth) or perfect octave (sometimes called the diapason) [2] is an interval between two notes, one having twice the frequency of vibration of the other. The octave relationship is a natural phenomenon that has been referred to as the "basic miracle of music", the use of which is "common in most musical ...

    The next higher octave is nawa and the second tuti. [1] However, from these twenty-four tones, seven are selected to produce a scale and thus the interval of a quarter tone is never used and the three-quarter tone or neutral second should be considered the characteristic interval.

  6. Circle of fifths - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_fifths

    Twelve-tone equal temperament tuning divides each octave into twelve equivalent semitones, and the circle of fifths leads to a C seven octaves above the starting point. If the fifths are tuned with an exact frequency ratio of 3:2 (the system of tuning known as just intonation ), this is not the case (the circle does not "close").

  7. Symmetric scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_scale

    In twelve-tone equal temperament, the octave can only be equally divided into two, three, four, six, or twelve parts, which consequently may be filled in by adding the same exact interval or sequence of intervals to each resulting note (called "interpolation of notes").
