A sharp in a scale raises or lowers a note by whole or half step

1 answer

A sharp (♯) raises a note by a half step (also called a semitone) in a musical scale. For example, if you play an A sharp (A♯), it is one half step higher than A natural. Conversely, a flat (♭) lowers a note by a half step.
