Scales are like vegetables... if you don't do them you'll DIE!! Okay, that's a bit dramatic. But scales are super important for your development as a pianist. If you want to develop a better understanding of the piano and be able to play faster, scales are a must.

But ... they can be boring to practice (I hope I haven't upset all the traditionalists!)

Playing endless scales up and down the piano is no fun. So I have a way to practice scales that will help improve your technique while sounding beautiful at the same time.

We're in the key of G today, but you should try this in any key you practice scales in.

Here are the timecodes:

Intro 0:00
Key of G 0:41
We can make this more fun 1:16
Choosing your chords 2:26
Exploring with rhythm patterns 2:56

So have some fun! And make sure you practice your scales...

So you don't die ;)
