Before introducing the G major scale, there
is one thing we left out of the last video on C Major: Tonic triads and arpeggios.
"Arpeggio" is an Italian term derived from the musical instrument we call a "Harp":
think "harpeggio"!
Here's how we do it: LH plays the chord C-E-G, or DO-MI-SOL, with fingers 5, 3, and
1, and RH plays the same chord an octave higher with fingers 1, 3, 5.
You can play these triads with a rhythm, like "pepperoni piano" with either hand, or
like a percussionist, alternating hands: "pepperoni piano."
(Hey, we're learning lots of Italian words today: arpeggio, pepperoni, … piano) Aaaand,
… To play an ARPEGGIO of the same chord, you
"roll" your arm side-to-side, like this.
Then pass the LH over the RH to tap the high C with your index finger [finger 2], and return
to the bottom [R to L].
Arpeggio.
We want to remind students of the importance of proper stance at the keyboard: Your shoulders
and upper body should be relaxed; in fact, only the tip – first knuckle - of each finger
should have spring tension.
This is necessary in order to support the weight of the hand and forearm on the key.
Proper sitting height is always important, for balance and control: With your fingers
in contact with the key tops – and without shrugging the shoulders – your forearms
are roughly parallel to the floor; you may have to adjust the height of your seat and
keyboard accordingly.
Moving on.
For the one octave G Major Scale, going up, the fingering order we use is the same as
that of C Major: 1 (thumb), 2, 3, 1 (thumb again), 2, 3, 4, and 1 (thumb again); We still
won't use finger 5 (little finger) in scale practice, since we are going to add more
octaves to the scale.
Let's do that playing "touch piano" first.
Starting point is the G key, five tones above Middle C: DO RE ME FA SOL.
This "SOL" becomes the "DO" of the new key of G Major.
While playing, call out the finger order (1 – thumb – 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4 – ).
Do you notice that, when we reach the seventh tone, something doesn't sound quite right.
The fingering is correct, but since we are now in the new key of G Major, the 7th degree
has to be the Leading Tone: this is where the F-sharp key comes in,
played with the 4th finger!
So we have 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1.
Again, we always start hovering above the keyboard, not in contact with the key, and
do not attempt to "connect" one note or finger to the next scale note; just drop the
whole arm, bouncing from one key to the next.
Concentrate on using the same standard fingering, only now transposed to the key of G.
We'll smooth out the connection between notes later on, after the fingering is solid. [repeat]
We stopped at the top, because now we want
to engage the LH: LH going down uses the same fingering as the RH, but in the opposite direction,
going down the scale to the Left.
Let's do that playing "touch piano" first. [LH finger nos]
Our starting key for the LH is the G key,
one octave plus a fourth BELOW Middle C. While playing, call out the finger order, and remember
to play the F-sharp key with the second finger of your LH (touch first: 1 – thumb – 2,
3, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 1 – ending on the thumb).
Remember: same order as the RH, in the opposite direction.
Next, we need to get back to where we started.
Each hand simply retraces the finger order in reverse: RH 1 (thumb), 4, 3, 2, 1,
3, 2, 1.
Try that as "touch piano" first.
Now, we play.
First, the RH descending: Start with thumb on the high G: 1, then 4, 3, 2, 1, then 3,
2, 1.
And the LH ascending, same numbering: Start with thumb over the low bass G key: 1, then
4, 3, 2, 1, then 3, 2, 1.
Finally, let's add a second octave.
For the RH, simply start the fingering pattern from the G below middle C, continuing on up
the scale to high G. [fingering]
for the LH, start the fingering pattern from the same bass G just below middle C, continuing
on down the scale to low Bass G.
Then, the reverse. RH descending. [fingering]
[demos]
Got it?
Now, the triads and arpeggios.
Same fingering as C major.
just move it all over to G, four scale tones to the left.
As mentioned last time, it is probably better that you do not practice scales with both
hands at the same time, but practicing the triads and rolling arpeggios like this [demo]
is fine.
As in any physical sport, muscle coordination and habits become more efficient with repetition.
Make sure you keep reviewing the C scale we learned last time, and the triads and arpeggios,
also the Piano Beginnings, Elements, Fundamentals, and Harmony videos, to stay up on the theory.
Are you starting to see the system for fast learning of the scales?
Both C and G major use an identical fingering pattern, except we move it over, then make
that one adjustment for the new Leading Tone.
More on that to come.
Thank you for watching!
Now, start practicing!
