| dbo:abstract | In music from Western culture, a sixth is a musical interval encompassing six note letter names or staff positions (see Interval number for more details), and the major sixth is one of two commonly occurring sixths. It is qualified as major because it is the larger of the two. The major sixth spans nine semitones. Its smaller counterpart, the minor sixth, spans eight semitones. For example, the interval from C up to the nearest A is a major sixth. It is a sixth because it encompasses six note letter names (C, D, E, F, G, A) and six staff positions. It is a major sixth, not a minor sixth, because the note A lies nine semitones above C. Diminished and augmented sixths (such as C♯ to A♭ and C to A♯) span the same number of note letter names and staff positions, but consist of a different number of semitones (seven and ten, respectively). The intervals from the tonic (keynote) in an upward direction to the second, to the third, to the sixth, and to the seventh scale degrees (of a major scale are called major. A commonly cited example of a melody featuring the major sixth as its opening is "My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean". The major sixth is one of the consonances of common practice music, along with the unison, octave, perfect fifth, major and minor thirds, minor sixth, and (sometimes) the perfect fourth. In the common practice period, sixths were considered interesting and dynamic consonances along with their inverses the thirds. In medieval times theorists always described them as Pythagorean major sixths of 27/16 and therefore considered them dissonances unusable in a stable final sonority. We cannot know how major sixths actually were sung in the Middle Ages. In just intonation, the (5/3) major sixth is classed as a consonance of the 5-limit. A major sixth is also used in transposing music to E-flat instruments, like the alto clarinet, alto saxophone, E-flat tuba, trumpet, natural horn, and alto horn when in E-flat, as a written C sounds like E-flat on those instruments. Assuming close-position voicings for the following examples, the major sixth occurs in a first inversion minor triad, a second inversion major triad, and either inversion of a diminished triad. It also occurs in the second and third inversions of a dominant seventh chord. The septimal major sixth (12/7) is approximated in 53 tone equal temperament by an interval of 41 steps or 928 cents.

(it) 在西方文化的古典音樂中，一個六度是一個包含六個五線譜位置的音程，而大六度是兩個常見的六度(大六度和小六度)的其中一個。它是大六度因為它是兩個之中最大的：大六度跨越九個半音，小六度跨越八個。例如，從C到A的音程是一個大六度，因為A在C的四個半度以上(C->C#->D->D#->E->F->F#->G->G#->A)，而且A在五線譜的位置距離C六個位置(C->D->E->F->G->A)。雖然和包含相同數目的五線譜位置，但是它們包含的半音數目不同(7和10)。 大六度能在泛音列中的第三個(G)和第五個(E)的音程裏找到。大六度的得名是因為它是大調裏的六度(C->D->E->F->G->A->B->C)。 (zh) |
