Learn about Octaves - 1, 8!
Hi mums and dads! Welcome to another lesson with Fun-Keys 4 Kids. This week we learn what is an OCTAVE .
An Octave are 2 notes with 8 notes between them.
For example!
πΉ Let's play Cπ on the piano. Now count 8 notes going upwards, including Cπ.
1 - C π Do 2 - D β€οΈοΈ Re 3 - E π Mi 4 - F π Fa 5 - G π So
6 - A π La
7 - B π Ti
8 - C π Do
πΉ Now play only note number 1 and note number 8. They are both Cπ !
That is an Octave
πΉ Now try the same with Aπ .
Count 8 notes going upwards, including Aπ.
1 - A π La
2 - B π Ti
3 - C π Do 4 - D β€οΈοΈ Re 5 - E π Mi 6 - F π Fa 7 - G π So
8 - A π La
πΉ Now play only note number 1 and note number 8. They are both A π!
That is an Octave too!
πΉ You can try with any note on the piano. If you count 8 you will always get to its Octave.
πΉ If you count 8 upwards you will get an Octave Higher. If you count 8 downwards you will get an Octave Lower
