Morning All!
I have just encountered the dominant sevenths scales - one octave (violin) and have a couple of questions please. 1. Why am I learning dominant sevenths, where will they eventually lead me? What were they invented for? 2. The scales ask me to start in the key of 'x'. In the key of C I play a G as my first note and in the key of G I play D as my first note and so on. Why do I start on those first notes? I don't understand why the note G would be the key of C? I would appreciate any simple answers please.....I have a tiny little brain (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
