4 - Intermediate - Key Signatures Flashcards

The objective of "Key Signatures" is to help you quickly recognize the Key Signature (sharps or flats) for each Major or minor key. A Key Signature is a specific number of sharps or flats placed on the staff (written after the clef and before the Time Signature) that indicate the pitch for those specific notes. Identify relative Major and minor Keys. Identify Parallel or Tonic Major and minor keys. UltimateMusicTheory.com
