Clefi's Libri GmbH Clefi's Music Notebook 2: New Music Education School Series Workbook for Young Musicians

In Celfi's Music Notebook 2, young musicians can learn about the pitch class system and learn more about scales. They will discover the differences between major and minor scales, learn how to use the circle of fifths to create all the major scales with sharps and flats. Clefi and Notelina talk about intervals and how to create fifth chords and their inversions. They talk about chord symbols, which will be needed later on when creating harmonic accompaniment. We will also learn about tempo markings, repetitions, upbeats, octave transpositions, syncopes, and triplets.At the end of the book, we will travel back in time to uncover the origins and evolution of the minor scale. We will explore why we use three forms of the minor scale today: natural, harmonic, and melodic. Additionally, we will read about the famous Greek scholar Pythagoras, who studied tones and discovered the principles that influence their pitch. His work laid the foundation for the theory of tuning and intervals.Visit Clefi's webpage on our website to learn more about the author and her nine-volume New Music Education School series and our original Clefi & Notelina's Songbook that contains all songs from all nine books."Clefi's Music Notebook 2" Content: Musical Notation, Duration of Notes and Rests, Major Scales with Sharps, Perfect Intervals, Major and Minor Intervals, Fifth Chords, Chord Symbols, Scale Degrees, Circle of Fifths, Major Scales with Flats, Tempo Markings, Symbols in Musical Notation, Pickup Measure, Octave Transposition, Accent, Syncopation, Triplet, Tonality, Minor Scale, Types of Minor Scales, Tuning.
