Explanation:

Each major and minor key has an associated key signature, showing up to seven flats or seven sharps, that indicates the notes used in its scale.

In the measure (bar) where it appears, an accidental sign raises or lowers the immediately following note (and any repetition of it in the bar) from its normal pitch, overriding the key signature. A note is usually raised or lowered by a semitone, and there are double sharps or flats, which raise or lower the indicated note by two semitones. Accidentals usually apply to all repetitions within the measure in which they appear, unless canceled by another accidental sign, or tied into the following measure. If a note has an accidental and the note is repeated in a different octave within the same measure the accidental is usually repeated, although this convention is far from universal.

The modern accidental signs derive from the two forms of the lower-case letter b used in Gregorian chant manuscripts to signify the two pitches of B, the only note that could be altered. The "round" b became the flat sign, while the "square" b diverged into the sharp and natural signs.

Sometimes the black keys on a musical keyboard are called "accidentals" (more usually sharps), and the white keys are called naturals.

Accidentals

-In music, an accidental is a note of a pitch that is not a member of the scale or mode indicated by the most recently applied key signature. In musical notation, the sharp, flat, and natural symbols, among others, mark such notes and those symbols are also called accidentals

-modify the pitch of the notes that follow them on the same staff position within a measure, unless cancelled by an additional accidental. Lowers the pitch of a note by one semitone. Raises the pitch of a note by one semitone.

Natural

-In music theory, a natural is an accidental which cancels previous accidentals and represents the unaltered pitch of a note. A note is natural when it is neither flat nor sharp. Natural notes are the notes A, B, C, D, E, F, and G represented by the white keys on the keyboard of a piano or organ

Flat

-In musical notation, flats are the notes made low in a given key signature. The symbol for a flat is L, which means half a tone lower than the written note. The first flat key signature is the key of F, or its relative minor, which is D minor (Dm). These keys have a single flat note: B flat (Bb)

Sharp and Flat Notes

SHARP! When you listen to music, you often hear sharp and flat notes without even knowing it. Notes that are sharp or flat are called accidental notes, and they help composers give some variety to music, communicate with musicians who play different instruments and sometimes use them to bring tension and release to music. Nearly all instruments can play accidentals. In fact, if you've seen the keys of a piano, you've seen sharp and flat notes. Most sharp and flat notes are the black keys of the piano, as opposed to the white keys, which are called natural. The natural notes are the 'regular notes' we call A, B, C, D, E, F, G.

A sharp (♯) raises a note by a semitone; a flat (♭) lowers it by a semitone; a natural (♮) restores it to the original pitch.

Enharmonic

-In modern musical notation and tuning, an enharmonic equivalent is a note, interval, or key signature that is equivalent to some other note, interval, or key signature but "spelled", or named differently.

harmonic tones

-a tone produced by suppressing the fundamental tone and bringing into prominence one of its overtones.

The word "pentatonic" comes from the Greek word "comb" which means five and "tonic" which means tone. ... The Pentatonic Scale is the backbone of Japanese and Chinese music

Penta- comes from the Greek pénte, meaning “five.”

tonic is from the Greek word tonikós pertaining to stretching or tones.

Composers like Claude Debussy have used pentatonic scales for added effect in his music. The anhemitonic form of a pentatonic scale has no semitones (ex. c–d–e–g–a–c) and this is the most commonly used form.

Musical composition can refer to an original piece or work of music, either vocal or instrumental, the structure of a musical piece or to the process of creating or writing a new piece of music. People who create new compositions are called composers.

A composition is a musical work, with or without lyrics, that has been created by a songwriter/composer. A sound recording, often also referred to as a "master”, is the recording of a performance of the underlying composition. This includes beats, percussion, bass, guitar, vocals

A pentatonic scale is a musical scale with five notes per octave, in contrast to the heptatonic scale, which has seven notes per octave. Pentatonic scales were developed independently by many ancient civilizations and are still used in various musical styles to this day
