"sees" within music scales...

- Sadly, many players still
overlook the power of music scales for developing
- improvisational and compositional ideas.
There is literally a treasure chest
- contained within each and every
scale that can be used to
create
- interesting melodies, harmonies and tunes.
-
- In the past, it was
difficult and time consuming to look at (and within) scales
- to see their
musical potential.
-
- First, certain relationships
are just not very obvious when music
- scales are viewed in traditional
staff notation.
-
- Second, staff notation does
not allow the student to easily visualize
- the placement of that scale's
notes throughout the instrument's
range.
-
- Third, many scale studies have been
misconceived in that students are generally
-
guided to practice by playing basic scales without ever being taught how
to observe
- and analyze the underlying
value of music scales as a whole.
- Music scale study should not be mindless
and "rote".
Because of these factors,
traditional scale studies have been dreaded as being
"boring, and of
limited value by students.
Quite the contrary, the Matrix
