Music Fundamentals A Balanced Approach

Exercise 3—Class Exercise “Odd” Numbered Intervals: 1, 3, 5, 7

Listen to each interval as it is played both harmonically and melodically. When written, notice that “odd”
numbered intervals (1, 3, 5, 7) encompass pitches written on a space and another on a space, or a line and a
line.

Again, count all consecutive letter names beginning with the first pitch (key).

Exercise 4

Label the interval number of the pitches drawn below. Write the letter name on the keyboard below the staff
and bracket them as shown in the example.
Note: The interval number is not affected by whether notes ascend or descend; always count from the lowest
note to the highest.
