With Halloween right around the corner, there isn’t a better time to practice the scary modes! As a classical musician, I’m guilty of not practicing my modes very often, but they are still very important.

Scale of the Week – E Major
New week, new scale! This week the focus is on E Major. There aren’t too many sharps just yet, and this scale is one of my favorites.
Practicing scales doesn’t have to be boring, especially if you don’t have any exercise books to use. One way to change up the normal the 2 (or 3) octave scale is to change the rhythm of the scale.
Scale of the Week – A Major
New scale this week! A Major! I really start liking the sharp key signatures when they start to get more complicated. I am also the weirdo that likes E Major and B Major!
Scale of the Week – D Major
New scale this week: D Major! This week I’m working on practicing scales in different patterns.
Scale of the Week – G Major
New week, new scale! This week it’s G Major! This week I’m focusing on practicing my scales in different groupings.
