G (musical note)

G, also called Sol or So, is the fifth note of the fixed-do solfège starting on C. It is the fifth note and the eighth semitone of the solfège. As such it is the dominant, a perfect fifth above C or perfect fourth below C.

When calculated in equal temperament with a reference of A above middle C as 440 Hz, the frequency of middle G (G4) note is approximately 391.995 Hz. See pitch for a discussion of historical variations in frequency.

It has enharmonic equivalents of Fdouble sharp (F-double sharp) and Adouble flat (A-double flat).

In the medieval period the musical note G was known as gesolreut within the Guidonian hand hexachord system.

It is the first note of the 2006 song "Welcome to the Black Parade" by My Chemical Romance, which made the note a meme.
