Pitch is a perceptual property of sounds that allows their ordering on a frequency related scale or more commonly pitch is the quality that makes it possible to judge sounds as “higher” and “lower” in the sense associated with musical melodies Pitch is a major auditory attribute of musical tones along with duration loudness and timbre.

Definition of PitchHow Is Pitch Measured?Pitches of Related NotesSumming UpWhat actually happens when you play a note on an instrument? Whether you pluck a piano key or strum a guitar string or blow into a saxophone that instrument produces a sound wave A sound wave is just vibrations of air molecules that go back and forth creating a wave of pressure that travels from the instrument (that produces the sound) and is picked up by our ears The main property of a sound wave is its frequency which is just a word for how fast the cycle of the wave is Pitchis then how the human ear hears and understands that frequency This is all a bit technical and mathematical but just know that pitch is basically the frequency of a note The higher the frequency the higher the pitch and vice versa the lower the frequency the lower the pitch So a note sounds “higher” or “lower” than another note if it has a higher or lower frequency than that note You can easily see on a staff what notes are highpitched and which are lower because they are literally written “hi Pitch is measured mathematically as the number of times a sound wave can repeat in one second This number is then displayed in Hertz(Hz for short) For example a tone can have a pitch of 400 Hz which means the sound wave produced by the note repeats 400 times in one second The human ear can only hear tones with pitches between 20 Hz and 20000 Hz and almost all of the music you see and play would be between 50 Hz and 8000 Hz Notes that are in the same scale and specifically notes from the same chord are mathematically related by pitch For example take the note A from the table above This A has a frequency of 440 Hz But to get the frequency of the A an octave higher you doublethe pitch and the frequency So if the lower A has a frequency of 440 Hz then the higher A is 440×2 = 880 Hz This continues up and down the entire frequency range – every A found in music is either 55 Hz 110 Hz 220 Hz 440 Hz 880 Hz 1760 Hz and so on Perfect 4ths and 5ths of a note are also closely related The pitch of a perfect 4th is 43 the pitch of the main note and the 5th is 32 above So if the A above is 440 Hz then the perfect 4th above that (D) is approximately 440×4/3 = 587 Hz and the perfect 5th above that is 440×3/2 = 660 Hz The ratio between pitches of other notes in a major or minor scale are as follows These ratios aren’t really necessary to memorize but they are helpful to point out that the not So hopefully that gives you a good overview of what pitch is In general pitch is the term for how “high” or “low” the note sounds and it can be measured and written in terms of Hertz or notation on a musical staff There are a lot of terms and numbers in this post so it could be worth going over a few times to make sure everything makes sense If you have any questions let us know in the comments below and we’ll help you out!.
