Learn the KeysFlute

A note appears on the staff and you press its keys straight onto the flute diagram, then hit done. A stopwatch runs on every note, so what you find out isn't only whether you know a fingering — it's how long it takes you to find it.

There are five levels, of five, ten, fifteen, twenty and twenty-five notes. Level one is the first five notes most beginners get; each level after it reaches further out, naturals first, until level five samples the flute's whole written range. Notes that can be spelled two ways are asked both ways, because B♭ and A♯ are the same key and different things to read. Alternate fingerings count as correct wherever the instrument really has one.

Playback follows whichever flute you've picked — piccolo, concert flute, alto in G or bass — while the notes on the staff stay exactly where they're written. When a round ends you get your total time, your accuracy, your average per note, and a list of the notes that still need work.

It's free and it runs in this browser tab, with nothing to install. You can look through the levels without signing in, but starting one asks you to make a free account, because a round writes its time and accuracy to your progress — and if a teacher assigned it, to theirs. The fingering chart the game is built on needs no account at all.
