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.
