Theory - Degrees of the Scale

Tonic	1st note
Supertonic	2nd note
Mediant	3rd note
Subdominant	4th note
Dominant	5th note
Submediant	6th note
Leading Note	7th note
Tonic	8th note

The above table gives the names of each note of the scale.

As an example, the stave above shows how the degrees of the scale relate to the key of C and hence the C major scale.

If the key was F Major, the tonic would be F and the subdominant (4th) would be B-flat.

The links below provide terms, including Italian French and German, all needed to pass grade 5 theory.
