Pitch refers to how high or low a note is. It is the perceived frequency of a sound wave and determines the musical note or tone. Increasing the frequency results in higher pitch, while decreasing the frequency leads to lower pitch.
Pitch refers to how high or low a note is. It is determined by the frequency of the sound wave produced by the musical instrument or vocal cords. To determine the pitch of a note, you can use your ear to perceive its frequency or use a musical instrument tuner, which measures the frequency and displays the corresponding pitch. The pitch of a note is often represented using musical notation, such as the letters A-G on the staff in Western music. Rising from left to right on the staff represents a higher pitch, and descending represents a lower pitch. Higher frequencies produce higher pitches, while lower frequencies produce lower pitches.
