Just need to work at these now to ensure my "scales" are accurate helpful hints throughout mean I should get the best out of what is normally a students least favorite thing to practice.

un peu simpliste
beau papier, belle couverture, présentation séduisante, pour un livre jusqu'au niveau 5 je me serais quand même attendu à des choses un peu plus élaborées. tel quel, je peux aussi bien travailler sans livre ...

学びやすくて気に入っています。目次がないので、書いておきます。参考になれば幸いです。
学びやすくて気に入っています。目次がないので、書いておきます。参考になれば幸いです。 スケール練習をやるように指導者から言われますが、どこから、どうやってやったらいいのかわからない。いきなり「3オクターブやってきて」と言われても、すぐにはできない。この本は、簡単な調の1オクターブから進んでいくので、心理的にも入りやすい教材です。1000円しないのも、うれしい(購入時711円)。 ■■ GRADE 1 ■■ ○使用する調 【1オクターブ 4分音符=44】 G MAJOR D MAJOR a minor natural 【2オクターブ 4分音符=44】 C MAJOR ○練習課題 SCALES even notes(8分音符×8の繰り返し。最後だけ4分音符) long tonic(4分音符×1+8分音符×6の繰り返し) ARPEGGIOS ■■ GRADE2 ■■ ○使用する調 【1オクターブ 4分音符=50】 F MAJOR A MAJOR B♭ MAJOR g minor(natural,melodic,harmonic) d minor(natural,melodic,harmonic) 【2オクターブ 4分音符=50】 C MAJOR G MAJOR ○練習課題 SCALES even notes(8分音符×8の繰り返し。最後だけ4分音符) long tonic(4分音符×1+8分音符×6の繰り返し) ARPEGGIOS(FGAB♭gd1オクターブ、C2オクターブ) ■■ GRADE3 ■■ ○使用する調 【1オクターブ 4分音符=54】 A MAJOR c minor(melodic,harmonic) a minor(melodic,harmonic) 【2オクターブ 4分音符=54】 D MAJOR F MAJOR G MAJOR d minor(melodic,harmonic) ○練習課題 SCALES even notes(8分音符×8の繰り返し。最後だけ4分音符) long tonic(4分音符×1+8分音符×6の繰り返し) ARPEGGIOS(Aca1オクターブ。DFGd2オクターブ) CHROMATIC SCALES(D線で開始) ■■ GRADE4 ■■ ○使用する調 【2オクターブ 4分音符=58】 E♭ MAJOR F MAJOR A MAJOR B♭ MAJOR c minor(melodic,harmonic) d minor(melodic,harmonic) g minor(melodic,harmonic) ○練習課題 SCALES even notes(8分音符×8の繰り返し。最後だけ4分音符) long tonic(4分音符×1+8分音符×6の繰り返し) ARPEGGIOS DOMINANT SEVENTHS(GとCのキーで1オクターブ) CHROMATIC SCALES(D線G線で開始) ■■ GRADE5 ■■ ○使用する調 【2オクターブ 4分音符=63】 E♭ MAJOR E MAJOR A♭ MAJOR A MAJOR e minor(melodic,harmonic) g minor(melodic,harmonic) a minor(melodic,harmonic) 【3オクターブ 4分音符=63】 C MAJOR ○練習課題 SCALES even notes(8分音符×8の繰り返し。最後だけ4分音符) long tonic(4分音符×1+8分音符×6の繰り返し) ARPEGGIOS DOMINANT SEVENTHS(B♭で1オクターブ。FとGで2オクターブ) DIMINISHED SEVENTHS(C、Gで開始、1オクターブ) CHROMATIC SCALES(C、C#、Dで開始、2オクターブ)

A SYSTEMATIC WAY TO LEARN SCALES RATHER QUICKLY AND EASILY
My former teacher had me learning scales in a book with tricky rhythms and bowings. Please. Who needs the stress? I decided that the Associated Board of the Royal School of Music probably know what they are doing since the books / system are used in all English-speaking countries (except the US, mostly) and the grade levels actually mean something. I decided not to do the exams as they are so involved, but one can still do the system. I highly recommend these books for beginners. They help establish a good foundation. Rather than playing trickier things poorly (like many Suzuki students) one learns to play at first basic pieces, but well, to a performance standard really. No one likes to hear a poor performance, even if (especially if?) it is more complicated. Better to establish a solid foundation, and this book starts one on good footing.
