ALTO SAX CHROMATIC SCALE

twenty five
Happy Bench Monday!!!

The quest for perfection is a funny thing. You can play the same score over and over again, and in practicing to correct just one mistake, you end up with ten mistakes in ten different places after playing the same piece ten times. So much for “practice makes perfect”.

Or it could be that it’s just not my gifting.

I’ve played the piano since age four, and I took the ABRSM exams, got to Grade Six, and quit when I was 16. I didn’t see the sense in working on only three pieces and the numerous scales to death in one year, or less, just to do average in the exams. Although I love playing the chromatic scales really, really, really fast!!!

Other than that, I do better playing by ear and following simple chords.

All the colors of the musical scale. A Chromonica has a slide that gives sharps and flats.
