Transcription and Transposition

Movable-do tonic solfa specifically assigns the syllable "do" to the tonic of the current key,

• A.regardless of the music's actual sounding pitch
• B.a factor entirely unrelated to assigning "do" to the tonic regardless of actual pitch
• C.only when the actual sounding pitch happens to be C, and never otherwise
• D.only when the piece is written using the treble clef, rather than any other clef

Transposing a melody in C major up by a major second specifically results in the melody being rewritten in

• B.B flat major, a key that would instead result from transposing down, not up, by a second
• C.A major, a key that would instead result from transposing up by a different, larger interval
• D.a factor entirely unrelated to resulting in the melody being rewritten in D major

A performer transcribing a melody heard by ear specifically must accurately judge both its rhythm and

• A.a factor entirely unrelated to needing to judge the exact interval between successive notes
• B.the exact market price the finished transcription might eventually be sold for
• C.the precise instrument used to originally perform the melody being transcribed
• D.the exact interval between each successive note
