How many flats are there in G-flat major? ____ c If the next-to-last flat in a key signature is E-flat, what is the key? ____ d. If the last sharp in a key signature is E-sharp, what is the key? ____ e. If you write out a major scale starting on the fifth note of the C major scale, what key would that scale be in? ____ How many sharps are in that key? ____ f. If you write out a major scale starting on the fourth note of the A-flat major scale, what key would that scale be in? ____ How many flats are in that key? ____ g. F# & Gb are examples of enharmonic equivalents—either as notes or as major keys. Name the enharmonic equivalents for the keys of D flat ______ and B major? ______ h. Write out the pattern of whole steps and half steps for an ascending major scale: _______________________________________________________________________ i. Write out the pattern of whole steps and half steps for a descending major scale: _______________________________________________________________________ j. The pattern for major scales has been described in class as two adjacent tetrachords separated by a whole step—that is, two groups of four notes. Each tetrachord has the same pattern of intervals, which makes it easier to remember. Circle or underline all the groups of notes that form a tetrachord for a major scale. (There is more than one right answer.): 1) E-F-G-A 2) Bb-C-D-Eb 3) A-B-C#-D 4) D-E-F-G 5) Eb-F-Gb-A k. Give a time signature based on the quarter note: ____ l. Give a time signature based on the half note: ____ m. Give a time signature based on the eighth note: ____ True or false (T/F): n. There are 10 notes per octave for a chromatic scale. ______ o. For a time signature in which a half note gets one beat, a quarter note gets half a beat and a whole note gets three beats. ______ p. The B Major scale consists of a tetrachord on B and a tetrachord on F# ______ q. Let’s say that you have a time signature of three-four. If you need to write a rhythm that is 4 beats long, you can slur a dotted half note to a quarter note in the next measure. ______ r. To mark a note that should be held longer than the written value and is ended either by a signal from the conductor or when the performer chooses, use a fermata. ______
