  • I learned how to do that when I learned scales when I was little!

  • Oh my goodness!! I love this. I'm a new teacher and it's always tough for me to watch both hands when my students play the scales to ensure that they have the fingering correct. This makes SO much sense.

  • i wish she was my granny :)

  • I wish I had known this when I was learning my scales. Thank you, it's extremely useful.

  • OMG! The four finger rule makes SO much sense.

    This is for teaching children and im a teenager :/ Oh well! At least my scales will get better! :)

  • it's funny, i figured that rule was common sense to all musician

    i never had a teacher tell me that but i did figure it out myself when i started to practice sclaes

    it also helps to see the whole scale as a shape that appears when all the other keys outside the scale disappear
