The other quizzes on this site are fixed: you either practice one interval at a time (only 3rds, only 5ths) or face all of them at once. Here you choose. Tick the numbers you want, say whether you prefer to identify intervals or write them, and the quiz is built from those and nothing else.
Why choose your own intervals?
A class does not move through all the intervals at once. Seconds and thirds are explained and practiced for a few weeks, and only then do fourths come in. An "all intervals" quiz arrives too early, and a thirds-only quiz is too short as soon as you have seen more than one number.
- Review what you have covered so far. If you have reached the 5th, tick 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th and the quiz asks only those.
- Drill what goes wrong. If you mix up 6ths and 7ths, tick those two and nothing else: twenty exercises in a row on exactly that doubt.
- Prepare for an exam. Tick the intervals that will be on the test and share the link, so students can practice at home as often as they like.
How it works
The exercises are drawn at random each time, so they are never the same: you can repeat the set as often as you like and give each student a different one. They are melodic intervals in treble clef, between A3 and A5, and no pair of notes is repeated within a set.
- Identify: you see the written interval and give its number, its quality and whether it is ascending or descending.
- Write: you get the first note and the interval to form, and you place the second note by clicking on the staff.
- Difficulty: natural notes only to begin with, progressive (starts without accidentals and ends with them, like the paper worksheets), or with accidentals from the start.
Every answer is checked immediately, with the right answer shown when you miss, and you get your score at the end. To work on the same material on paper, see the interval worksheet generator, which makes printable sheets with these same options.
The other interval exercises
If you prefer the guided route, the interval exercises section has the quizzes broken into parts: interval number, harmonic and melodic, direction and one for each number, from seconds to octaves. When everything feels solid, the complete interval analysis mixes it all together. And for work away from the screen, there are the printable interval worksheets with answer keys.
