Spotify playlist - Grote secunde

In this song you can hear the major second interval in the first two notes of the verse: WELL-SOME, and again at AND-SINCE (the beginning of the bridge). Both times Amy is singing from a Bb to a C.

This song is written in A major, which is why there are many sharps. After the intro, you can hear the first major second interval in THERE-ARE (E-F#), and afterwards I’LL REMEMBER (B-C#). In the second sentence John sings, you can hear the major second in IN-MY (B-C#). Afterwards this melodie repeats.

John sings the major second interval in the first two notes of the first three sentences of the verse. For example: NO-I’M from A to B. Please be aware that sometimes there is an extra note before, like in AND-IF-MY (E-A-B). The major second interval is in the last two notes.

This song is full of major second intervals. At the start of the verse, there is LOV-ING YOU (F-G-A), which are two major second intervals. Afterwards the melodie continues with IS-N’T-THE (F-G-A), repeating the same pattern. This doesn’t continue, because the next note is a Bb, which makes it a different interval. However, HOW-CAN-I, is going from Bb to C, and from C to D, which makes two major second intervals. The same goes for EV-ER CHANGE.

This song is for the rock-lovers among us! David Grohl sings a very melodic intro, in which there are many descending major second intervals, and also an ascending major second when he sings DARK-YOU and DARK-AND, going from A to B.

In the first two notes of the melodie, F to G, there is a very clear major second, followed by another one from G to A. You can hear this many times in this song. Sit back, and enjoy this jazz classic!

We concentreren ons op het begin van de melodie, die van Bb naar C naar D gaat (AIN'T-YOU-SOME), wat resulteert in twee oplopende intervallen van de grote secunde.

Dit is misschien wel een van de makkelijkste, herkenbare intervalnummers uit deze lijst. In deze Disney-klassieker begint Elton John elke regel met een grote secunde, van G naar A.

In dit nummer hoor je de grote secunde in MOST-HEA (van G-A) en RIDGE-MOUN (van D-E).
