EKS Lesson Nine Developing minor triads
As we have done all the way through the course so far, and as we intend to continue to do, we are going to transfer the concept we have developed to other scales and triads. We are now going to repeat the above process, this time with D minor.
This time though, we are adding another challenge – as we are going to use eighth notes in the scale rhythm and you are going to play doubles in the right hand to help develop that skill.
Look at the figure below, along with the exercise, and remember that you can use the multimedia files as always.
Figure 3. D minor triad in the bass and D minor scale in the treble clef (Enlarge)
Note that in this exercise the flat symbol (b) is only used on the first note of the pair of notes.
In standard music notation the flat symbol continues to all notes of the same pitch in the bar unless cancelled by another sign.
