Db Major
Scales are a vital method of teaching the fingers how to "instinctively" play passages that you will encounter in music. Time spent practising scales will greatly reduce the work necessary to perform pieces.The scales here are written with similar fingering groupings in mind. You should find this much easier andquicker to learn than starting with C major.Scales should be practised EVENLY and slowly at first. Build up speed gradually.
