Music Theory Trivia Questions

1. Presto, largo, allegro - these terms, amongst many others, relate to what property of music?

From Quiz
Coming to Terms with Music

Answer: Tempo

Tempo is the Italian word for time and, in the context of music, determines the speed at which a piece is performed. Many different tempi exist to suit the type of music being played. Andante, for instance, is roughly the same speed as if you were walking, whereas something like allegro is indicative of a livelier, more upbeat piece. Take a listen to something like Handel's "Water Music" (Suite No. 1 in F Major) and hear the difference between the andante and allegro movements.

2. Most notations for piano music are in Italian, and that even includes the word 'piano' itself. What does 'piano' translate to in English?

From Quiz Simple Music Theory

Answer: Soft

When Bartolomeo Cristofori built his first instrument in 1700, he named it 'un cimbalo di cipresso di piano e forte' which is quite a mouthful. The literal translation was 'a keyboard of cypress with soft and loud', which was shortened to 'pianoforte', or 'soft-loud'.

3. Music can be described as the combination of notes into a pleasing sequence. How many notes are there in a heptatonic scale, the traditional scale in Western music?

From Quiz Make it Music

Answer: Seven

A diatonic, or heptatonic, scale starts and finishes on notes with the same name, the higher one having twice the frequency of the lower one. The notes in any scale follow a specific pattern, depending both on the starting note and on the type of scale used. The C Major scale, for example, uses the notes C-D-E-F-G-A-B-C. Pentatonic scales, with five notes, are based on five notes spaced in frequency like the black keys on a piano. Chromatic scales, which use all the white and black keys on a piano, have twelve notes. A scale with 20 notes per octave would need to use frequency intervals that are not used in Western instruments.

4. In the key of A major, which three notes are to be played or sung sharp (unless a natural or flat symbol is placed next to the notes)?

From Quiz "All About That Bass"

Answer: F, C, G

The key of A major consists of the notes A, B, C# (sharp), D, E, F#, G#, and A. Its relative minor is F# minor.

5. M is for "Mediant". In a diatonic scale, each note is given a name. For instance, the first note of the scale is the "tonic". Which position is the mediant?

From Quiz M.U.S.I.C. Theory

Answer: Third

The third note of the scale is called the "mediant". It is halfway between the tonic and the dominant, and the second note of an arpeggio. In C major, the tonic is "C". "D" (second note) is the supertonic. "E" is the mediant. "F" is the subdominant. "G" is the dominant. "A" is the submediant. "B" is the leading note.

6. On the Treble Clef staff, what is the note on the bottom line called?

From Quiz I Hear You're Trying to Write Music

Answer: E

There is a little way of remembering where the notes on the Treble Clef staff are. The notes on the lines go EGBDF reading up. And the notes in the spaces spell FACE reading up.

7. What is the notation for musicians called?

From Quiz Music Technicalities

Answer: Staff notation

The staff is the set of horizontal lines(5) on which those "dots with sticks" are printed. Standardization of staves at five lines began in the 16th century.

8. One of the simplest forms is also one of the most common. Not only is binary form a precursor to several other forms, but it is often embedded within these other forms. How many main sections does a binary form contain?

From Quiz Form in Music Theory

Answer: Two

As implied by its name, the binary form consists of two main parts, often called reprises.

9. Karla is playing a set of variations in fa mineur. What key is fa mineur in English?

From Quiz The Language of Keys

Answer: F minor

French and Italian key nomenclatures both rely on a fixed-do system, where C is do or ut, D is ré or re, E is mi, etc. Fa is F, a fourth away from Do (C). Mineur is French for minor.

10. What is the name of the 4th degree of a scale?

From Quiz Basic Music Theory

Answer: Subdominant

The fourth scale degree is called the subdominant, from Latin "sub" meaning under, and the dominant, the fifth note of the scale. It is called the subdominant as it is the dominant five degrees under the tonic. The submediant is the 6th note of the scale, and the supertonic is the 2nd.

11. What does adagio mean?

From Quiz Music Theory-First Grade!

Answer: slowly

When the term 'adagio' is seen you must play slower so every beat can be heard.

12. How many lines are on a stave?

From Quiz Musical Theory - Do You Have The Knowledge?

Answer: Five

The notes which are on the staves from bottom to top are E, G, B, D, F. Notes can be either on the line of the stave or in the space on a stave.

13. What are the lines on which musical notation is written called?

From Quiz Mixed Music Theory

Answer: A staff or stave

A staff is made up of five horizontal lines and four horizontal spaces.

14. When you raise a note up one semitone what does it become?

From Quiz Music Theory

Answer: sharp

Every note on the piano keyboard has two or more letter names, including double sharps and double flats.

15. In music theory what does the word "andante" mean?

From Quiz Fun with Musical Terms

Answer: at a walking pace, moderately paced

The music term "andante" is used when you are play a jolly song where the tempo is not too fast or not too slow.

16. What does the term "poco a poco" indicate?

From Quiz Music Nomenclature

Answer: little by little

This term is often used when a composer wishes to dictate a gradual dynamic increase or decrease. For example: poco a poco crescendo - increase volume little by litte -or- poco a poco accelerando - little by little increase speed.

17. What is another name for the Treble Clef?

From Quiz Music Theory For Beginners

Answer: The G Clef

It is named this because of where the treble clef is located in position to the staff. I learned that on Blue's Big Musical!

18. What is the interval between G and B?

From Quiz Name That Interval!

Answer: Major Third

Usually associated with any major mode (obviously), the major third is an interval of 2 whole steps.

19. What does legato mean?

From Quiz Musicianship Grades 1 and 2

Answer: Smooth and well connected

Legato in music is often shown as a slur which is placed above or below the noteheads depending which way it is pointing to.

20. What is the only note value that has a sharp scale with all notes being sharps and a flat scale with all notes being flats? Remember, this quiz is about MAJOR scales.

From Quiz Major Scales in Music!

Answer: C# or Cb scales

An F major scale has 1 flat (Bb), a G major scale has 1 sharp (F#), and a Bb major scale has 2 flats (Bb and Eb).

21. Name the musical term for the definition "A point of repose at the end of a phrase".

From Quiz Musical Terms

Answer: Cadence

There are four main types of cadences: Plagal, Interrupted, Perfect and Imperfect.

22. What would you call an easy, strolling tempo?

From Quiz A Musical Alphabet

Answer: Andante

Andante comes from the Italian word meaning "going". Adagio is slower than andante, and allegro is faster.

23. How many notes are there (chromaticly) in an octave (including the first note repeated)?

From Quiz Basic Music

Answer: 13 & thirteen

There are 8 notes in an octave (not chromatically), C, D, E, F, G, A, B, and C- or do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, ti, and do.

24. What is it called when a meter sounds duple but is notated in triple?

From Quiz Music Theory for Dummies

Answer: hemiola

Handel is noted for using the hemiola throughout his music.

25. What is the word for the speed of the music?

From Quiz Music Vocabulary

Answer: Tempo

Different tempos are andante (walking tempo), largo (slow), and allegro (lively).

26. What would be the name of the interval from middle C to the A-Sharp above middle C?

From Quiz 1st Semester Freshman Music Theory Final

Answer: Augmented 6th

Since C up to A is a Major 6th, adding an A# makes the interval one half step larger and it becomes an Augmented 6th.

27. In a piece in the key of C Major, you encounter a chord spelled (from the bass up) G-C-E. What chord would you expect to follow?
