Tuning Page
This is a collection of notes to which you can tune scales, arpeggios, melodies, harmonies, and all of your other assignments. Each note will play for 1 minute. If you need to hear it longer, just play it again. Also, you can save the file (right-click for windows people, option-click for mac users) and put it on your mp3 player. That way, you can play it through your headphones. Remember, when the sound is closer to you than your instrument, the sound does not have to be as loud. The letter is the pitch of the note, and the number refers to the octave. The higher the number, the higher the note. For instance, the violin and viola tuning A is A4. All pitches are tuned in equal temperament to A440.
