The common "major" scale consists of eight tones or notes (from the starting root note to the root note one octave higher). Scales are based on a compilation of tones. If you need help, consult the chart above. Use the colors, note names and numbers to play the rest of the notes in the scale. Next is the Orange D, play it on the fourth (4) string with the fourth (4) finger. From left to right, start with the Yellow C on the fourth (4) string, using your third (3) finger. Using the information from the first position fingering chart above, play this C major scale. For instance, as a musician playing a composition in E major you will need to know which notes on the staff will be sharped. Generally, any note that lies on the same line as a sharp sign is sharped and any note that lies on the same line as a flat sign is flatted. They look similar to a pound sound (sharp) or an italicized lower case b (flat). The key signature appears between the treble clef and time signature on a piece of sheet music. It is important to understand key signatures for songs and scales. The C scale below is one of the few scales that contains no sharps or flats and requires no key signature.
Key Signatures: The key signature tells you which notes are sharped or flatted in a scale or song. If you are playing the Red A on the G (4) string and need to ascend one half tone to A sharp, move your first (1) finger up the fingerboard to the box that contains the Red triangle. In the example above, if you are playing the Blue B on the G (4) string and need to descend one half tone to B flat, move your second (2) finger down the fingerboard to the box that contains the Blue triangle. The color of the triangle corresponds with the color of the related natural note. The "down" pointing triangle is a flat when you are descending a scale (going down in tone). The "up" pointing triangle is a sharp when you are ascending a scale (going up in tone). Play the Yellow C on the fourth (4) string with the third (3) finger.įollow the chart and play the rest of the notes on each string.īetween the natural notes there are two colored triangles inside a square box like in the example below. Play the Blue B note on the fourth (4) string with the second (2) finger. The next note is a Blue B note and below it are the numbers 4|2. Play the Red A note on the fourth (4) string with your first (1) finger. The first number (4) is the string the note is on, and second number (1) is the finger the note is played with. The next note is a Red A and below it are the numbers 4|1. For example, the first note on the music staff in the chart above is a Green G played on the open (O) G (4) string. Use it to learn violin : The two numbers below each note on the music staff above represent the string the note is found on, and the finger the note is played with, respectively.
