Diatonic and chromatic

[edit]

The article uses the term "diatonic" without adequate explanation. This term, along with "chromatic", is the cause of serious uncertainties at several other Wikipedia articles, and in the broader literature. Some of us thought that both terms needed special coverage, so we started up a new article: Diatonic and chromatic. Why not have a look, and join the discussion? Be ready to have comfortable assumptions challenged! – Noetica♬♩Talk 22:24, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

F sharp major

[edit]

I believe the E sharp cannot be a common of F natural although they're enharmonic equivalent.--89.14.97.40 (talk) 18:15, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A scale with the deep scale property, such as the diatonic scale, has a unique number of occurrences of each interval class. Since the diatonic scale has two semitones, it can't have two tritones. You appear to be correct. Hyacinth (talk) 03:37, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
