When I was a little girl, my Mom taped two diagrams on the wall
next to the pillow of my bed for me to study if I couldn't fall
asleep. One was a multiplication table. The other was a "Circle of
Fifths". Both were hung sideways, so that when my head was on the
pillow, they seemed right side up.
I've found 3 pages that describe the Circle of Fifths in a much
clearer way than I ever could. They are:
All you have to do is refer to the pages, and answer the questions
below to find the cache.
When your answer is a "note" or "key", "A" is
1, and "B" is 2, etc. If your answer has a "sharp" or "flat" in it,
just ignore the "sharp/flat". An answer of "E flat" is
5.
- The note that is a perfect fifth higher than F
- The number of half steps in a perfect Fifth
- The note that is a fourth higher than F.
- It would be "madness", but if there were a key with 9 sharps,
what o'clock would it be?
- At what o'clock is the key with 4 flats?
- What o'clock represents a fifth up from D flat?
- If a key has sharps, what is the first sharp?
- In the key of B major, what is the last sharp you have
added?
- What is the first flat that appears in a key with flats?
- What is the seventh sharp that is added in a key with 7
sharps?
- There are 4 flats. What key is it?
- There are 4 flats. What is the last flat?
- At what o'clock is the relative minor key for G major?
- What is the relative major key for the key of A minor?
- A minor key has the same number of sharps or flats as its
relative major key. What minor key has only 1 sharp?
