You just need to know how the root note changes in the pattern. You can learn the same exact patterns for both.There are a few reasons that the penatonic scales are the short cut for the scales. The awesome part is that they contain the same note intervals (with differing roots), so the patterns are the same. There is a major pentatonic scale and a minor pentatonic scale. Pentatonic scales contain five notes, which is how it gets its name (Penta=5, tonic = tones). But, to spare you the details of learning about double-sharps, some notes have been written differently.Learn the major and minor pentatonic scales, their patterns, when to use them, and why they’re the scale shortcut. Traditionally, scales should only have one instance of every note. It's important to exclusively use either sharps or flats in a single scale.įingerings: 1 = Thumb, 2 = Index Finger, 3 = Middle Finger, 4 = Ring Finger, 5 = Little (pinky) Finger. The reason a scale can be a sharp or a flat (for example: C♯ / D♭ Major) is that these are the same note, just a different way of expressing it.
Each note included in the scale is highlighted in blue on each major scale's piano diagram below.įlat (♭) and sharp (♯) scales: All of the sharp and flat major scales are in the right column, next to their natural counterpart. Each key is highlighted in blue in the text of each major scale. The Key: The key is what each scale starts on and is built from, this is known as the tonic. There has been an additional note added at the end of each scale that represents the beginning of the scale in the next octave up (which is just the same scale in a higher pitch). This list of major scales consists of 5 notes in each music scale, forming pentatonic scales.
