In music theory, the tritone is defined as a musical interval composed of three adjacent whole tones. For instance, the interval from F up to the B above it (in short, FB) is a tritone as it can be decomposed into the three adjacent whole tones FG, GA, and AB. According to this definition, within a diatonic scale there is only one tritone for each octave. For instance, the above-mentioned interval FB is the only tritone formed from the notes of the C major scale. A tritone is also commonly defined as an interval spanning six semitones. According to this definition, a diatonic scale contains two tritones for each octave. For instance, the above-mentioned C major scale contains the tritones FB (from F to the B above it, also called augmented fourth) and BF (from B to the F above it, also called diminished fifth, semidiapente, or semitritonus). In twelve-equal temperament, the tritone divides the octave exactly in half. * In classical music, the tritone is a harmonic and melodic dissonance |
