musical octave
A musical octave is an interval between two pitches where the higher pitch is double the frequency of the lower pitch. This term originates from the Western music tradition and is widely used in music theory. It is so named because in the traditional major and minor scales there are eight notes between (and including) the two pitches. For instance, if you start on a C on a piano and play up to the next C, you would play eight notes and have spanned one octave.
