What is the interval from A to D?
2) Since A to D (without any accidentals) is a perfect 4th, and this must be 2 half-steps wider than A-D (since A♭ is 1 half-step lower than A, and D♯ is 1 half-step higher than D), so A♭ to D♯ would be a doubly augmented 4th (because we augment the perfect interval twice).
What is the interval C to F?
Since C to F is a perfect fourth (5 semitones), C to F# would be an augmented fourth (6 semitones). F to B is also an augmented fourth (since F to Bb is a perfect fourth). Major intervals can be augmented by adding a half step. Major intervals can be augmented by adding a semitone.
What is the interval from F# up to B?

What is the interval between D and B?
So the interval from D to B is a sixth. If the interval is an 8th it can be written as an octave. If an interval notes are at the same pitch it is called a unison To start with all intervals will be an octave or less.
What is the interval between B and C?
The interval between B and C is also a naturally occuring half step. If we lower the B to B flat, we make the interval larger by increasing the distance between the two notes by half step, which now makes the interval a whole step.
What is the interval from D to G?
4th
We can find the NUMBER of an interval by counting the scale steps from the starting note to the one in question. (or scale steps) between the notes: D and G. This means that the interval between these two notes is that of a 4th. We can find the QUALITY of an interval by determining the scale it belongs to.
What is the interval from C up to AB?
6th intervals above note C
| Short | Medium | Intervals ‘above’ statement |
|---|---|---|
| d6 | dim6 | The C to Abb interval is diminished 6th |
| m6 | min6 | The C to Ab interval is minor 6th |
| M6 | maj6 | The C to A interval is major 6th |
| A6 | aug6 | The C to A# interval is augmented 6th |
What is the interval between G to E?
For example, we have 9 semitones between G and E (check with a keyboard), which makes it a major sixth.
