    Three-octave scales involve playing scales across three octaves. The document discusses primary patterns for three-octave scales labeled B1, B2, B3 etc. and R1, R2, R3 etc. It recommends practicing the scales with an acceleration exercise, playing the scale starting slowly and gradually increasing the tempo, as well as a retardation exercise playing the scale in reverse from fast to slow. The exercise should maintain the same duration for quarter notes throughout.

    Three-Octave Scales
    Groups of twelve notes. PATTERNS: B1, B2, B3, B4, B6, BI2
    RI, R2, R3, R4, R6, R12
    Primary Patterns:

    In addition to these patterns, practice all three-octave scales with the Acceleration Exercise
    as shown in the following example. In playing it make sure
    that
    the value of the quarter
    note
    remains the same throughout. Choose a slow tempo at first ( = 50-60), then gradually increase
    it. The exercise may also be practiced in reverse as a Relardation Exercise by starting at the
    end with the thirty- second notes and finishing with the eighth notes.
