On the other hand these intervals are considered

dissonant:

• minor second - For example from C - Db

• major second - For example from C to D
• minor seventh - For example from C to Bb
• major seventh - For example from C to B
• tritone - For example from C to F#, tritone is
also known as an augmented 4th or diminished
fifth and it has an interval of 3 whole steps.
Most often dissonance is resolved by moving to a
consonant chord. This makes the initial feeling of
tension created by dissonant chords to reach a
resolution. The common term for this is tension
and release. However, dissonance doesn't
always need to be resolved, also perceiving
chords as dissonant tends to be subjective.

Dissonant intervals are those that cause tension and

desire to be resolved to consonant intervals. These
descriptions relate to harmonious intervals.
Dissonances can be divided into sharp and soft
dissonances. This division relates mainly to atonal
music. Minor second and major seventh are sharp
dissonances. In tonal music, non-diatonic intervals
(diminished and augmented) are usually dissonances,
but in jazz and other African-American music, the
tritone is "neutral", in other words it does not require
resolution to a consonance.
