The Piano Scales Manual
The most important training of any piano player is learning the scales.
Trouble from learning the scales comes from the fingering. If the human hand was meant to play the piano it would have seven fingers. Since there are seven notes in the scale, all scales are fingered by some combination of 1-2-3 and 1-2-3-4. Now where do I put my thumb is the question.
Fingering the scales has plenty of systems; but the simplest and the best for the ear player can be simply stated. Put the thumb on the key next above the black key played in the right hand and next below the black key played in the left hand. This principle brings the best fingering on a formal piano.
Fingering for all scales is listed below. Fingering memorization is not needed. Learn the principle of passing the thumb in under the hand when the fourth finger is on a black key and when the third finger is on a black key. The greatest difficulty is the overcome by holding this one principle, the hand will form its own habit.
Key of - right hand - left hand
C - 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 - 1 4 3 2 1 3 2 1
C# or Db - 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 2 - 3 2 1 4 3 2 1 4
D - 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 - 2 1 4 3 2 1 3 2
Eb - 3 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 - 3 2 1 4 3 2 1 3
E - 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 - 1 4 3 2 1 3 2 1
F - 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 1 - 3 2 1 4 3 2 1 3
F# or Gb - 2 3 4 1 2 3 1 2 - 4 3 2 1 3 2 1 4
A - 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 - 2 1 3 2 1 4 3 2
Bb - 4 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 - 3 2 1 4 3 2 1 3
B or Cb - 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 - 1 3 2 1 4 3 2 1
At the end of the scale is the only time the 5th finger is used.
Scale Habits
Through several octaves is the best way to master scales; each octave the fingering repeats. To get the correct fingering you must practice slowly. This is because you are forming a fingering habit; the wrong move will develop a wrong habit. As you learn the sequence your speed will increase. Now try playing two together when comfortable playing scales separately with both hands.
To play in the middle and play with hand in opposite direction makes learning a bit more easily. Playing them in direction an octave apart is the most helpful form of practice.
Practice without an accent very slowly. Then accent every third note and play them for three octaves. Then accent every fourth note and play them for four octaves. Even at the top of the piano scales it brings out the accents. Gets faster gradually trust me.
Technique
These tips will help you develop smooth and speed techniques. Keep fingers curved when learning the scales. It’s easier for the thumb to under pass the hand. When necessary bend the thumb far in under the hand.
When passing the thumb under the hand do not raise your wrist; unless needed do not twist your hand to the left or right. The thumb should do the work. Do not pull the hand to the front when playing white keys and then shove it in to play the black keys. In short, avoid all excess motion.
