Catch the Notes! Level 9

Dominant chords — work out the tonic triad yourself, then find the Dominant or Dominant 7th chord!

← Level 8: Tonic Triads · All games · Level 10: Subdominant Chords →

How to play: Danielle shows you a key signature and plays the tonic triad — but this time she doesn't name it or show it on the staff. Work it out yourself, the way you learned in Level 8! Then Danielle plays either the Dominant chord or the Dominant 7th chord, built on the 5th note of that scale. Tap the matching notes from the 12-note keyboard, in any order, into their slots. The trick: in a minor key, the dominant chord's 3rd is always the raised leading note — even though the key signature doesn't show it! If the key signature has sharps, use sharp names; if it has flats, use flat names. Get every note and Danielle arpeggiates the dominant chord, reveals the tonic triad too, and celebrates!

Ready to find the dominant chord?

Danielle will play the tonic triad first — figure out what it is yourself, like you did in Level 8 — then play the Dominant or Dominant 7th chord for you to find. Watch out: in minor keys, the chord's 3rd is a raised leading note!
