WHWWHWW IS THE PATTERN OF INTERVALS IN THE BLANK SCALE

1 answer

The pattern of intervals in the "blank scale" you mentioned (WHWWHWW) refers to the structure of a major scale in Western music theory. Each letter corresponds to a whole step (W) or a half step (H) in the scale.

Here's what the pattern means:

  • W = Whole Step
  • H = Half Step

The sequence WHWWHWW corresponds to the intervals in a major scale, starting from the root note:

  1. W (Whole step)
  2. H (Half step)
  3. W (Whole step)
  4. W (Whole step)
  5. H (Half step)
  6. W (Whole step)
  7. W (Whole step)

For example, if you start on C, the C major scale would follow this pattern:

  1. C to D (W)
  2. D to E (W)
  3. E to F (H)
  4. F to G (W)
  5. G to A (W)
  6. A to B (W)
  7. B to C (H)
