Arban's Complete Conservatory Method for Trumpet is a method book for students of trumpet, cornet, and other brass instruments. The original edition, Grande méthode complète de cornet à pistons et de saxhorn) , was written and composed by Jean-Baptiste Arban (1825-1889) and published in Paris by Léon Escudier in 1864. [ 1 ]

The tones of the chromatic scale (unlike those of the major or minor scale) are all the same distance apart, one half step. The word chromatic comes from the Greek chroma, color; and the traditional function of the chromatic scale is to color or embellish the tones of the major and minor scales. It does not define a key, but it gives a sense of ...
The bottom line, indicating first-partial pedal tones, is not usually used by trumpet or horn. The seventh partial (B♭ on trumpet) is flat relative to equal temperament, and thus its use is also avoided. This method is impractical in the altissimo range, because of fingering differences between horns. [citation needed]
One of the most important subsets of the alpha collection, the alpha chord (Forte number: 4-17, pitch class prime form (0347)), such as E–G–C–E ♭; using the theorist Ernő Lendvai's terminology, [58] the C alpha chord may be considered a mistuned major chord or major/minor in first inversion (in this case, C major/minor).
72-TET also has equally tempered quarter-tones, and indeed contains three quarter-tone scales, since 72 is divisible by 24. The smallest interval in 31 equal temperament (the "diesis" of 38.71 cents) is half a chromatic semitone , one-third of a diatonic semitone and one-fifth of a whole tone, so it may function as a quarter tone, a fifth-tone ...
The two whole-tone scales as a symmetrical partitioning of the chromatic scale; [1] if C=0 then the top stave has even (02468t) and the bottom has odd (13579e) pitches. In music, a whole-tone scale is a scale in which each note is separated from its neighbors by the interval of a whole tone.
The bebop major scale is derived from the Ionian mode (major scale) and has a chromatic passing note added (a ♯ 5) between the 5th and 6th degrees of the major scale. Adding the ♯ 5 note to the seven-note major scale allows the chord tones 1, 3, 5 and 6 (a major 6th chord ) to land on on-beats when the scale is played sequentially.
