How to Play Major Scales in Groups of 3 or 4
Here’s another way to practice your scales that will help you learn them better and more quickly. As I mentioned in the last scale exercise lesson, it’s a good idea to practice your scales in as many different ways as possible.
For this lesson, I again used C Major, but you should practice this exercise in every key. In addition, those how read notation should write out this exercise in every key. This helps you learn the note names in addition to the fingering pattern.
Remember to start at a tempo at which you can play this exercise perfectly ten times in a row. Then, increase tempo two beats per minute at a time.
Have fun, and…
