The Major Scale

The Root of Music Theory can be seen by playing The Major Scale in the Key of C on the Piano (only the white keys from C to C)
The Major Scale
 
C to D is one whole step or tone due to the black key in between them.
E to F is one half step or semitone there are no keys between them.
 
The Major Scale can be thought of as - whole step - whole step - half step - whole step - whole step - whole step - half step.
 
Remember this pattern.
WWHWWWH
 
Another way to think of the notes is in numbers - the first note C=1 and the second note D=2 and the third note in the scale E=3 and so on.
 
Please have a look at Diatnic Harmony to see how the numbers way is the best in the end.
 
 
 
Here are some of the best rated books I could find on the subject.
