READING MUSIC 3 - Quiz Answers


  1. The level ( high, low) of its sound.

  2. The distance (pitch difference) between two notes.

  3. Two notes sounded simultaneously.

  4. Two notes sounded one after the other.

  5. Interval between two notes more than one octave apart.

  6. A unison.

  7. An octave.

  8. The intervals are :

    1. C - B = 7th

    2. B - C = 2nd

    3. D - G = 4th

    4. G - D = 5th

    5. F - A = 3rd

    6. A - F = 6th

  9. The interval B - C is the 'upside down version' (inversion) of C - B
    Likewise the interval G - D is the inversion of D - G,
    and the interval A - F is the inversion of F - A.

    The number of any interval and its inversion always add up to 9.
    7 + 2 = 9
    4 + 5 = 9
    3 + 6 = 9

  10. The compound intervals are :

    1. C - E = 10th

    2. C - G = 12nd

    3. E - C = 13th

    4. B - E = 11th

    5. F - E = 14rd

    6. D - E = 9th


  11. The number of a compound interval is always 7 more than its related simple interval with the same letter name :
    a 2nd becomes a 9th,
    a 3rd becomes a 10th,
    a 4th becomes an 11th, and so on.
