leap

In music, a step, or conjunct motion, is the difference in pitch between two consecutive notes of a musical scale. In other words, it is the interval between two consecutive scale degrees. Any larger interval is called a skip (also called a leap), or disjunct motion.

Step – The interval between two notes that are directly next to each other on the staff. Skip – The interval between two notes that have exactly one note between them on the staff. Leap – The interval between two notes that have two or more notes between them.

A skip has one note in between. When two notes have a note in the middle of them, we call that a skip. A skip is one more than a step away from the next note. If your thumb is on C and your third finger is on an E, that distance is what we call a skip.

adjective. Music. moving from one adjacent tone to another: stepwise melodic progression.

The leap is a locomotor movement characterised by a take-off on one foot, a long flight phase and a landing on the opposite foot. Although it is an extension of the sprint run, it differs in that it is a discrete skill with a clear beginning and end point.

A melody that rises and falls quickly, with large intervals between one note and the next, is a disjunct melody. One may also speak of “leaps” in the melody. Many melodies are a mixture of conjunct and disjunct motion.

Jump is a motion of the body upwards, leap is a motion forwards, hop is a bounce so you jump and come back to the surface, while skip is a repeated motion or continuous hop over a object.

Then player one spins the spinner to find how many leaps of ten to take in this example they make three leaps of ten. After each leap they write the number of their landing space on the record sheet.

The term 'skip' is derived from the Old English word 'sceap', which means to throw away. This is likely to be due to the fact that skips are often used to discard unwanted items in a quick and easy way. The first skips were developed in the 1940s in the United Kingdom.

Before discussing the different types of non-harmony notes, we need to define two terms: A step is equal to an interval of a generic second. A skip is equal to an interval of a generic third or more. A leap is equal to an interval of a generic third or more.

• Composition. The composition stage is the process of generating musical ideas.
• Arrangement. Music arrangement is the art of taking your musical ideas and laying them out along a timeline to build a final piece of music.
• Sound Design and Production.
• Mixing.
