Intervals

Below are illustrations of intervals in TwinNote music notation. Notice how each interval is visually distinct. The two types of notehead make it easy to differentiate between different intervals. (In intervals with an even number of semitones the triangles always point in the same direction. In intervals with an odd number of semitones the triangles always point in different directions.) When compared with the representation of intervals in traditional music notation, TwinNote is more clear, consistent, and direct.
