3rd - 6th grade Music Theory

Hi everyone!

As the time goes by, we are getting deeper and deeper into the Music Theory World.

The top subject for this period is: "INTERVALS"

As you know already, we can have different sizes of intervals, different qualities and of course, different types of intervals too.

To be more specific:
Sizes : we start from Unison, 2nd, 3rd, 4th ...and we go up to an octave.
Qualities:  we have minor (m), Major (M), Perfect (P), Augmented (A), Diminished (D). Please check your notes for more information about that.
Types: Melodic (horizontal form), Harmonic (vertical form).


You will have homework on the 2nd intervals. You need to identify the interval and then transform it using accidentals to the other qualities and types.
Remember:
2nd intervals can be:
minor - 1 semitone
Major - 1 tone (2 semitones)
Augmented - 1 tone and 1 semitone (3 semitones)
