How to Practice Piano Scales With Creativity (3 Techniques)
Make scale practice musical — learn 3 creative techniques for major and minor scales on the piano, with correct posture and fingering. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music teaches creative scale exercises on both major and minor scales, with the correct posture and fingering throughout. Part 1 uses the Compression-Expansion technique to play both melodically and harmonically; Part 2 uses the Pendulum concept of crossing fingers on both sides of the root to create melodies in both directions; Part 3 uses Thirds in various ascending and descending groupings. Together these turn scale practice into a genuinely creative workout on the piano. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= 📹 Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses & Private Lessons ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= ▶️ Related Lessons & Playlists 🎵 Music Theory lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/PianoTheory 🎹 All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC 👂 Ear Training lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= 🎓 Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac ➡️ https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre ➡️ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= 💰 Donate on PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️ https://instagram.com/jasonzac 📞 Call +91 98454 65411 · 💬 WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 📧 Customised & Private Classes ➡️ music@nathanielschool.com 🎧 Listen to Jason Zac Music ➡️ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #PianoScales #ScalePractice #PianoTechnique
