AlsoWhen playing inside a certain scale or key, we may occasionally omit the major/minor descriptorand just say the interval number. For instance, we may say that I might to play the 6th above C - E is a 3rd without qualifying whether it is a major 3rd 6th or minor 3rd6th. Or we may I might say we're going to play a harmony line a 3rd above any given melody, which will more than likely include both major and minor 3rds. As mentioned above, common scales only contain 1 interval for each of the numbers 2-7. This applies not only to the root note of the scale, but to each additional note that is <u>diatonic</u> to (or part of) the scale. Each scale has its own set of diatonic intervals, just as seen belowit has diatonic notes.
