Okay, we should begin by learning some scales and practice in the moving over. I know this sounds incredibly boring but it would be crucial to developing your technique and ease of playing. Learning the scales and understanding how they relate to tunes and melodies is the key to understanding the entire keyboard, how to make things sound interesting and how to play well
[piano playing]
The notes in the scale are played one after another in a specific ascending or descending order. Most are eight notes long and the top and bottom notes have the same name. [piano playing] C, C, E, E, G sharp, G sharp, F sharp, F sharp and so and. Scale types have specific names and are built on the root note or bottom note of the scale. The root note which is the same note as the scale begins on could start on any of the twelve notes available. [piano playing]
Twelve notes available are the chromatic scale. [piano playing]

All chordal and tone relationships I am going to show you will apply to any key you want to play a tune in. Other than all keys having their own unique mood, you often need to transpose the song from one key to another to make it more comfortable for a singer’s vocal range. Perhaps the original key is to high or low for their voice. The scale is created by a pattern of two kinds of steps, as what we have just been talking about, half steps and whole steps. As I mentioned before some white keys are side by side and some are broken up by a black key. The step pattern interval between two keys, directly adjacent to each other, white or black, is called a half step. Two keys separated by another key are referred to as a whole step. Two half steps equal a whole step.
