Q5a
Q5a
Start by drawing out the seven semi-breves you need to create a scale. One on each line/space evenly spread apart - make sure they are neatly drawn with a pencil.
Work out the tonic/first note. For this example we need the Bass clef.
(Personally, I remember the spaces on Bass clef as All Cows Eat Grass and the spaces as Great Big Dogs Fart Ants (mostly because it makes me giggle).)
What note does 5a start on?
What note does 5a start on?
C#
Work out the key signature so you know what accidentals to add in, and draw these IN FRONT of the correct note.
See the Key signatures page for help working out which accidentals you need for the key
This example is asking for the harmonic minor so you must also sharpen the 7th note of the scale (again, see the Key signatures page for more info)
