What the 20 questions ask
Twenty questions across four threads: scales, semitones, terms, and the drawn signatures. The signatures are the drawn part — key signatures rendered as pure line work on a staff for you to read — while the scales quiz thread, the semitone questions, and the terms round out the set. Nothing here needs an instrument in your hands; if you can look at a staff and think, you can play it.
Where the material comes from
The drawn side of this quiz was not traced from sheet music. Signatures are rendered from geometry, and every drawn position on Grand Staff was decoded and verified against theory by an independent review before any question was generated — 59 items, zero disputes. The terms come from the trivia side of the site, where two authors wrote the full answer key independently and the versions were compared value by value: 68 of 68 keys agreed.
How the quiz runs
Each question offers four options. Choose one and the verdict is instant — right or wrong, with the correct answer shown either way, so a miss teaches on the spot instead of waiting for the end. When you finish all 20, a full review walks back through every question. Your best score is saved in your browser, and there is no signup at any point.
A useful habit: take the quiz cold to find the gaps, practice what it exposed, then come back. The saved best score keeps the second pass honest.
