This is a way of organizing and showing relationships between pitches as a sequence of [[3/2|fifths]], and applies to any tuning system that can be generated by fifths and octaves. The generalized chain of fifths involves the 7 base note letters of the C major scale, along with sharps, double-sharps, flats, and double-flats (and beyond): | ||
