In this lesson, you will hear all twelve intervals played as chords and try to identify them.
This can be a very challenging task, namely because when the two notes are played together, an interval and its inversion can sound almost alike.
Here is a chart showing each interval and its inversion.
Interval | Inversion | Category |
Minor 2nd | Major 7th | Strong Dissonance |
Major 2nd | Minor 7th | Weak Dissonance |
Minor 3nd | Major 6th | Imperfect Consonance |
Major 3rd | Minor 6th | Imperfect Consonance |
Perfect 4th | Perfect 5th | Perfect Consonance |
Tritone | Tritone | Strong Dissonance |
Octave | Octave | Perfect Consonance |
