Hello!
We had few numbers today but still had a good class.
Scales: C pentatonic
C contrary motion NEW
Our scale review for the day was C pentatonic scale. Remember to skip 'F' and 'B' The fingering for this scale is :
1-2-3-1-2-4
c-d-e-g-a-c
Our Level 2 students are learning a few new concepts. This week, we learned about sharps and flats in Theory Thinker 2-3. I will talk more about tones and semitones next week but basically to sharpen a note, go up one note. And to flatten, go down one note. Sharps and flats are usually considered to be the black keys on the keyboard, however there are a few exceptions.
I talked about the terms Legato and Staccato and also started to explain tones and semitones. We will review more on them next week.
SONG
Let it Be
TO PRACTICE AT HOME
Piano Suite:
I would like you to review the lesson 2-3 in Theory Thinker on "Accidentals" if you have the program at home. Do not worry about the exercises in this lesson as most are quite confusing.
You can also practice Let it Be.
no program
I would like you to practice your scales and try sight reading any music you may have at home. You can also print the songs from last term that we learned. Check back on our older lessons for the PDF links.
See you all next week!
