Then, move up one click of the metronome only when you have played a scale perfectly three times. If you can't, slide you metronome weight down to a lower speed, until you find your starting point. Make sure you can play the scale evenly, with no mistakes. Start of with a medium tempo - about 2 notes per click at a speed of 60.
The best way to practise scales is with a metronome 50% of the time. Practice your scales regularly - there are lots of benefits! You will help to strengthen the muscles in your hands, you will become a better sight-reader (consider how much melody is made up of parts of scales!), and your understanding of the theory behind music, in particular key and tonality, will improve.
#D MINOR HARMONIC SCALE HOW TO#
How to Practise Scales - Scales are your Friend! Scales here are written out in quavers (eighth notes) to illustrate how they are most commonly played in exams, with four notes to a beat. Each octave is just a repeat of the last. Only one octave is given - you can extend the scales over as many octaves as you like. If you need to work out how scales are constructed with patterns of tones (whole notes) and semitones (half notes), take a look at our " How to write Scales" page.
If you need the natural minor scale - use the descending part of the melodic minor scale - it is the same! Here is a complete list of the major, minor harmonic and minor melodic scales, in treble and bass clefs.
