for other uses of the word octaveOctave disambiguation The Sicilian octave Italian language Italian ottava siciliana or ottava napoletana , lit. Naples Neapolitan octave is a verse form consisting of eight lines of eleven syllables each, called a hendecasyllable . The form is common in late Middle Ages medieval Italy Italian poetry . In English poetry , iambic pentameter is often used instead of syllabics. The form has a prescribed rhyme scheme A B A B A B A B . Although only the final two rhymes are different from the much more common ottava rima , the two eight line forms evolved completely separately. According to the Princeton Encyclopedia of Poetry and Poetics , scholars disagree on the origin of the Sicilian octave, but all agree that it is related to the development of the first eight lines of the sonnet called the octave . It is not clear whether the octave emerged first and influenced the sonnet or vice versa. The form is a variant of the strambotto , which is one of the earliest verse forms in the Italian language. The strambotto was used in Sicily and Tuscany , and consisted of either six or eight hendecasyllables. The rhyme scheme varied, but the Tuscan was form generally did not use the Sicilian octave scheme the most common was A B A B C C D D. The Sicilian octave is rare in Italian after the Renaissance and has seldom been used in English except as an illustration of the form. Before the 15th century, however, it was used often by poets in southern Italy, and was an important influence for Petrarch in his sonnets. Giovanni Boccaccio Boccaccio , who popularized and may have invented the unrelated ottava rima, used the Sicilian octave a total of once, in his early Romance heroic literature romance Filocolo.

The term is derived from the musical octave which similarly describes such frequency ratios, but the prefix octa , denoting eight, has no significance in physics. A frequency ratio expressed in octaves is the base 2 logarithm binary logarithm of the ratio. An amplifier or filter may be stated to have a frequency response of 6dB per octave over a particular frequency range, which signifies that the power gain changes by 6 decibels a factor of four in power , when the frequency changes by a factor of 2. This slope, or more precisely math 10 log 10 4 approx 6.0206 math decibels per octave, corresponds to a gain proportional to frequency, which is equivalent to 20dB per decade log scale decade factor of 10 gain change for a factor of 10 frequency change .

An Octave glissando is a glissando played on the piano by maintaining a constant distance of an octave between the thumb and finger used to execute it, and shifting the whole hand in the direction of the glissando. Due to the positions of the thumb s on the player s hand s, octave glissandos are almost always executed upwards with the left hand and downwards with the right. However, exceptions include Mily Balakirev Balakirev s Islamey , where players are instructed to execute the glissando upwards across three octaves with their right hands in the Tempo di Trepak section. Due to the slight damage and resultant pain which octave glissandi may cause to the flesh of the fifth finger, they are infrequently used in the piano repertoire. However, their inclusion offers a rare and unique musical effect. Examples Pieces which utilise the effect include Ludwig van Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 1 Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 1 in C major Carl Maria von Weber Konzertst ck for Piano and Orchestra in F minor Weber Konzertst ck in F minor Johannes Brahms Paganini Variations Brahms Variations on a Theme of Paganini . Mily Balakirev Islamey Johann Nepomuk Hummel Piano Concerto No. 2 Hummel Piano Concerto No. 2 in A minor Igor Stravinsky Trois mouvements de Petrouchka Three Movements from Petrushka Georges Cziffra Fantasy on William Tell Overture William Tell La Fantaisie Roumaine Marc Andr Hamelin Cadenza for Liszt s Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 Second Hungarian Rhapsody Injuries Due to the nature of this technique, over practicing without awareness can lead to injury, which includes superficial wounds, bruises and tendinitis . Variations One handed double glissandi are sometimes executed at intervals other than an octave, the most common being sixths. Franz Liszt s piano transcription of Hector Berlioz s Symphonie fantastique contains, in an ossia optional replacement measure in the finale, a glissando in sixths played upward with the right hand.

The piano example is also available as a MIDI file Image Octave Illusion.mid format Ogg Discovered by Diana Deutsch in 1973, the octave illusion is an auditory illusion produced by simultaneously playing two sequences of two note s that are spaced an octave apart, high to low, and low to high, in separate stereophonic sound stereo channels over headphones . The tones are sine wave s of constant amplitude , and switch between high and low four times a second, with no amplitude drops at the transitions. So the listener is presented with a single, continuous two tone chord, with the ear of input of each component switching repeatedly. Listen over headphones to the example linked below.
