D double flat



[Eng.]


The musical note "D" preceded by two flat (♭♭) symbols. The effect of each flat symbol (♭) lowers the pitch of the indicated note a semitone (or half step), so D double flat is the pitch "D" lowered by two semitones (two half steps). The resultant pitch would sound the same as the pitch "C".

See also [Eng.] D double flat; [Fr.] Ré double bémol (m); [Ger.] Deses (n); [It.] Re doppio bemolle (m); [Sp.] Re doble bemol.
