Pitch in music notation In standard notation, a sharp symbol raises the pitch of the natural note by a half-step; a flat symbol lowers it by a half-step. The pitch of a note is how high or low it sounds. Pitch depends on the frequency of the fundamental sound wave of the note. The higher the frequency of a sound wave, and the shorter its wavelength, the higher its pitch sounds. But musicians usually don’t want to talk about wavelengths and frequencies.

With “gh” and “dh,” your vocal chords get into the act.
