The "whole tones" in music are most easily defined in the key of "C", due to the piano being the most commonly played musical instrument.

On a piano, all of the "white" keys are whole tones, some separated by semi-tones, as shown by the "black" keys.

In an octave, one will find seven "whole" tones, with eight in total due to a repetition of the starting tone at the end.

There are five "semi-tones" (black keys) in between in each octave, after the first, second, fourth, fifth and sixth whole tones.

"middle" C on a piano is ~260hz, while the ending tone on the octave is double this, at ~520hz, and each "whole" note interval in between progressively and incrementally is staged in between.

Music tones are musical pieces that are transformed into simple tones. They can be downloaded to your cell phone to be used as a ringer, alarm or text message alert.
