You can term intervals as major, minor, diminished, perfect and augmented. Thus melodic interval would be distance between separately played notes.Īpart from these basic types, intervals can be defined in a variety of ways similar to scales. For example if I begin playing a C followed by an E and F, this setting would be melodic as the notes are played separately. Melodic intervals are also termed as linear intervals. Changing of one note to the next is involved in melodic intervals. Melodic Interval: Melodic interval involves successive playing of notes that is separately one after the other. Thus harmonic interval would be distance between simultaneously played notes. Harmonic intervals are also termed as vertical intervals. Harmonic Interval: Harmonic interval involves playing two notes simultaneously meaning at the same time such as singing a choir. In the world of music, your training experience would need you to understand two basic types of intervals that includes harmonic and melodic. Intervals can be measured by half-steps and full-steps between notes and there are different methods involved in identification of these intervals. These intervals go up to eighth from one C to another C and is termed as an octave.

For example the difference between C to E is third and that from C to F is fourth. Intervals are basically leading to notes that either go up or down within a melody. Your notes would either remain same or it can go up or down. In a melody, you can play different notes. Interval on piano is the distance between two musical notes on this instrument and understanding and identification of intervals is important for learning to select right notes to be played at right times to build a perfect harmonious melody.
