Music Interval Flashcards: Size, Quality & Note Spelling

Installable practice for interval names, semitone counts, inversions, identification, and spelling-aware construction in written music theory.

À propos de ce paquet

Written intervals get slippery when letter count, semitone distance, and spelling point in different directions. This 181-card deck turns those compact rules into retrieval practice for simple intervals from P1 through P8 in common Western written music theory and 12-tone equal temperament.

The sequence starts with size and quality families, abbreviations, and the conventional semitone chart. It then covers inversion pairs before moving into 48 note-pair identification prompts and 48 construction prompts. Cards practice interval name → semitone count, conventional semitone count → interval name, written notes → size and quality, and named interval + starting note → one correctly spelled upper note. Selected enharmonic contrasts show why equal semitone spans can carry different written names.

Reverse semitone cards use the conventional perfect/major/minor chart plus both tritone spellings. Other augmented and diminished enharmonic names appear only in selected contrast cards, not as an exhaustive reverse mapping. There is no audio, ear training, staff notation, compound intervals, exhaustive transposition grid, every enharmonic permutation, or course-specific grading.

The facts are common-knowledge music fundamentals checked against open educational references. CC0 applies to the original card wording, selection, ordering, metadata, and generated cover to the extent those elements carry rights; no ownership is claimed over musical facts.

This is an independent fundamentals deck. It supports written practice rather than replacing notation exercises, ear training, a course, teacher guidance, or a particular exam syllabus.

Cartes de ce paquet

  1. Carte 1

    Question

    In written music theory, what is an interval?

    Réponse

    The distance between two pitches. A written interval is named by its number and quality.

  2. Carte 2

    Question

    How does a major interval compare with the minor interval of the same number?

    Réponse

    A major interval is one semitone wider. The written interval number stays the same.

  3. Carte 3

    Question

    How do you find an interval number from two written note names?

    Réponse

    Count letter names inclusively from the lower note to the upper note. C–E counts C, D, E, so it is a third.

  4. Carte 4

    Question

    What quality results when a major or perfect interval widens by one semitone without changing its number?

    Réponse

    Augmented. For example, widening C–F from P4 to C–F♯ produces A4.

  5. Carte 5

    Question

    Which interval numbers belong to the perfect family?

    Réponse

    Unisons, fourths, fifths, and octaves: 1, 4, 5, and 8.

  6. Carte 6

    Question

    What two parts make a specific written interval name?

    Réponse

    Quality and number. For example, “major third” combines the quality major with the number third.

  7. Carte 7

    Question

    How does a minor interval compare with the major interval of the same number?

    Réponse

    A minor interval is one semitone narrower. The written interval number stays the same.

  8. Carte 8

    Question

    Do accidentals change an interval's generic number?

    Réponse

    No. The written letter names set the number; accidentals can change the quality.

  9. Carte 9

    Question

    What quality results when a minor or perfect interval narrows by one semitone without changing its number?

    Réponse

    Diminished. For example, narrowing C–G from P5 to C–G♭ produces d5.

  10. Carte 10

    Question

    Which interval numbers belong to the major/minor family?

    Réponse

    Seconds, thirds, sixths, and sevenths: 2, 3, 6, and 7.

  11. Carte 11

    Question

    Which comes first when naming an interval: quality or number?

    Réponse

    Quality comes first. Say “minor third,” not “third minor.”

  12. Carte 12

    Question

    What is a simple interval?

    Réponse

    An interval from a unison through an octave. Intervals larger than an octave are compound and are outside this deck's scope.
