Major Scales In All 12 Keys

In this lesson, we will learn all about major scales. This diatonic scale is one of the
most commonly used scales and is the first one you should learn as a piano or music
student. It is made up of seven notes.
The simplest major scale to write is C major, because it requires no sharps or flats. This
scale is also very easy to form on piano and keyboard because it makes use of white
keys only. Its notes are C, D, E, F, G, A, B and C. Of course, the last C, the eighth note
is a duplicate note, one octave higher.
