K3b

Music education software

Visit K3b

Minuet is a music education application that provides ear training exercises covering intervals, chords, scales, and rhythm. It helps users practice identifying notes with keyboard and staff feedback, recognize rhythm patterns including rests, sing intervals and scales with live pitch and timing feedback, and clap written rhythms while seeing where each beat lands.

Exercises can be adjusted for tempo, instruments, test length, and microphone feedback. Minuet is available on Linux through Discover and Flathub, as well as on Windows and macOS, with nightly installers also offered for testing. It is licensed under GPL-2.0+ and is part of the KDE applications ecosystem, with a handbook, forum, and mailing list available for support.
