The Complete Scale Compendium

A perfect book for developing technical facility and musicianship, this collection focuses on the most common elements of Classical music: major and minor scales, as well as chromatic, pentatonic, whole-tone and blues scales. Students will learn how the scales are constructed while practicing their unique patterns. The exercises are presented in two ways: by scale pattern, and by key - from the easiest to the most challenging, so they can focus either on learning new scales or mastering all the scales in a single key. This approach suits different technical levels and will help musicians build solid fundamentals while being introduced to theoretical principles.
