There is a good site on the internet for various music theory
drills. A link to its drills is found at the
bottom of this page. You may want to bookmark it for future
reference. We are merely visiting the
site for the practice drills.
When you go to the site, you will find a "Settings" button
for setting up the drill to meet your present needs. Following
Lesson 5, I recommend you use the following settings:
Build Intervals on Staff
No Accidentals on Starting Note
Ask Only General Interval
Ascending and Descending Intervals
Check the boxes for all intervals (probably
the default)
If you feel up to a challenge, you might change "Ask
Only General Interval" to "Any Type of Interval" and
select "Ascending Intervals Only." Because the
lower note will never have an accidental, you can determine
the quality of the "natural" interval (no accidental),
then determine how the size of the interval needs to change
in order to create the requested interval, and finally choose
the appropriate accidental that would result in the correct
interval. If all else fails, you can always select the button "Give
Up."
