In comparison to the C major scale, a similar finger pattern is used in the C flat major and the C sharp major (both a semi-tone lower and higher, respectively) - a very good reason to bring awareness to their importance in order to nurture intonation and good tone quality in a spectrum of different keys. The purpose of this study is to introduce scales with 4, 5, 6, or even 7 key signatures (which often are neglected), to improve security of finger patterns, and to widen tone variety. The above scales (with the exception of A sharp minor) are used widely in music. Why 30 scales one might ask? Six scales from the total of the 24 are enharmonic variants: These scales, starting with C sharp major and ending on A flat minor are to be performed without stopping as this is the main goal of the exercise.
