The FJH Classic First Scale Book (The FJH Piano Teaching Library)
A**S
Good, but more explanation needed.
All in all, a very good scale book. But I wish some theory had been included to explain what everything means. For example, I had to consult a theory book to find out what "dominant 7th" means.For each of the major scales, you get two pages with the following:(1) the scale(2) the scale in contrary motion(3) the scale in thirds (left hand plays regular scale; right hand starts a third higher)(4) the scale in sixths (right hand plays regular scale; left hand is a sixth lower)(5) block triads and inversions and dominant 7th chords(6) broken triads and inversions(7) arpeggios and inversions and dominant 7th arpeggios(8) cadence chordsFor each of the relative minors, you get the the same thing, except there aren't any thirds or sixths. In their place you get the harmonic and melodic minor scales.
