1 DOUBLESHARPS! You don't see them very often, but they do exist (kindof like Big Foot.. dun dun duuunnnnn).. A double sharp is an accidental that RAISES the pitch of a note by TWO semitones (or ONE whole tone). This differs from a regular sharp which only raises the note by ONE semitone. Take a look at the image below to see what a double sharp looks like. Kindof looks like an 'X', and it is placed in front of the note you wish to change. A DOUBLEFLAT actually looks like 2 flat symbols. Way too logical. I bet you can guess what a double flat does... It LOWERSthe pitch of a note by TWO semitones (or ONE whole tone). Again, peek at the image below to see what a double flat looks like. Exciting stuff. Double Sharp Double Flat Now you know your accidentals. All of them. It almost makes me want to sing. Next time we'll put them all together. FUN! Here is a fun (or not so fun) fact: Sharps and flats are not always accidentals, while naturals, double sharps, and double flats are always used as accidentals.. Can you think of a scenario where sharps and flats would be used as something other than accidentals? Here is a look at all of the accidentals together.. I didn't include any labels. Try to name the accidentals and identify what their function is. The next challenge is to put them all together. For example: You have a piece of music with 3 flats: B flat, E flat, and A flat. In your piece of music you encounter a B with a natural sign next to it. What note do you play? Well you would play the natural version of the key - the white key! Try to answer theses questions yourself before you look at the answers: What symbol would you use to raise a flat 1semitone? What symbol would you use to raise a flat 2 semitones? What symbol would you use to raise a flat 3 semitones? What symbol would you use to lower a double sharp one semitone? What symbol would you use to raise a double flat one semitone? What symbol would you use to lower a double sharp 2 semitones?
