How to Play Major Scales (B F# Bb Eb Ab Db): black-key fingering; demo: Streabbog the Cadets

You just heard the opening excerpt from Streabbog’s The Cadets, a resolute military type piece within Bb major. - It is a fast and exciting piece, but it easier to play than it sounds once you’ve practiced your scales and chord inversions. - Previously we learned piano scales with C fingerings, but when you add in more sharps and flats, you’ll need to learn what I call black-key fingering. - Today you will learn how to play black-key fingering for multiple octave major scales in 6 keys: B F# Bb Eb Ab Db.
