Description

In this Course, you will learn the basics of music theory, musical intervals, major scales and the names of the keys that are on the piano. You will learn about the half step interval, the whole step interval and the octave. I will teach you how to build a major scale for each of the 12 keys that are on the Piano. The formula for building a Major Scale will be explained to you.


It is very important that you know all the 12 Major Scales because a lot of songs are based on the Major Scale i.e. there are songs that use most of the notes or all of the notes of the Major Scale. A Musical Scale is a group of musical notes that are ordered by pitch. A scale that is ordered by increasing pitch is known as an ascending scale and a scale that is ordered by decreasing pitch is known as a descending scale. We have different types of scales.


A Major Scale is made up of the same notes irregardless of whether it is played in an ascending way or a descending way i.e. a Major Scale can be played in an ascending and in a descending way with the same musical notes.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone that wants to learn all the Major Scales
