Nice work today. We completed our composition assignments (homework for last week) and practiced our songs, The Baseball Game, Ten Little Indians, Ode to Joy and The Blue Danube Waltz. There was a bit too much noise from the three of you, Aidan, Ben and Josh. I hope that next week will be better for listening and working quietly... We also started learning about Relative Minor Scales this week. For every major scale there is a relative minor scale. For example, C major has no sharps or flats. To find the relative minor key, simply begin the scale on the VI degree, in this case, the note A. A minor will also have no sharps and flats, and will use the same fingering 1-2-3-1-2-3-4-5 as the C major scale.
We played some ear training games and improvised a bit at the end of class.
See you next week!
