Sample Saxony Abitur Music Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Saxony Abitur Music exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1In the C major scale, what is the interval from C up to E?
A.Major third (große Terz)
B.Minor third (kleine Terz)
C.Perfect fourth (reine Quarte)
D.Major second (große Sekunde)
Explanation: C up to E spans three letter names and four semitones. That combination is the definition of a major third (große Terz).
2What is the interval from C up to G?
A.Perfect fourth (reine Quarte)
B.Perfect fifth (reine Quinte)
C.Major sixth (große Sexte)
D.Augmented fourth (übermäßige Quarte)
Explanation: C up to G covers five letter names and seven semitones, which is a perfect fifth — the interval that frames every triad and drives the circle of fifths.
3How many semitones does a perfect octave contain?
A.Seven
B.Eight
C.Twelve
D.Fourteen
Explanation: Equal temperament divides the octave into twelve semitones. That twelve-tone chromatic total is also the raw material of dodecaphony.
4Which three notes form a C major triad (C-Dur-Dreiklang) in root position?
A.C – E flat – G
B.C – E – G sharp
C.C – F – A
D.C – E – G
Explanation: A major triad stacks a major third plus a minor third: C–E (major third) and E–G (minor third), with C–G as a perfect fifth.
5A minor triad is built from which intervals above its root?
A.A minor third and a perfect fifth
B.A major third and a perfect fifth
C.A minor third and a diminished fifth
D.A major third and an augmented fifth
Explanation: A minor triad has a minor third and a perfect fifth above the root (e.g. A–C–E). The major-third-plus-perfect-fifth shape is the major triad instead.
6In functional harmony, which scale degrees form the tonic triad (Tonika) in a major key?
A.I – III – V
B.II – IV – VI
C.IV – VI – I
D.V – VII – II
Explanation: The tonic triad is built on scale degree 1 and uses degrees 1, 3 and 5. In C major that is C–E–G.
7Which cadence ends on the dominant (V) and therefore sounds open or incomplete?
A.Authentic cadence (Ganzschluss)
B.Half cadence (Halbschluss)
C.Deceptive cadence (Trugschluss)
D.Plagal cadence (Plagalschluss)
Explanation: A half cadence (Halbschluss) ends on V, creating an open, expectant close. A Ganzschluss ends on I; a Trugschluss deflects to VI; a Plagalschluss moves IV–I.
8A perfect authentic cadence (vollkommener Ganzschluss) typically progresses
A.IV to I
B.V to I with both chords in root position and the tonic in the soprano of the final chord
C.V to VI
D.I to V
Explanation: The vollkommener Ganzschluss is V–I with both chords in root position and the melody ending on the tonic — the strongest classical close.
9In figured bass (Generalbass), the figure '6' under a bass note typically indicates
A.A root-position triad
B.A first-inversion triad (sixth chord)
C.A second-inversion triad
D.A dominant seventh chord
Explanation: The figure 6 marks a sixth chord: the interval of a sixth above the bass, i.e. a triad in first inversion (e.g. bass E under a C major triad E–G–C).
10How many different pitch classes appear in a fully diminished seventh chord?
A.Three
B.Four
C.Five
D.Six
Explanation: A fully diminished seventh stacks three minor thirds and contains four distinct pitch classes (e.g. B–D–F–A flat).
