    Some music teachers teach their students relative pitch by having them associate each possible interval with the first interval of a popular song. [1] Such songs are known as "reference songs". [ 2 ] However, others have shown that such familiar-melody associations are quite limited in scope, applicable only to the specific scale-degrees found ...

    It is found in between a minor and diminished interval, thus making it below, or subminor to, the minor interval. A supermajor interval is a musical interval that is noticeably wider than a major interval but noticeably narrower than an augmented interval. It is found in between a major and augmented interval, thus making it above, or ...
