      Introduction

      Making music is all about patterns. 24 Keys is designed to help you learn the unique fingering pattern that makes up each key quickly and easily through learning scales and arpeggios, and through practice exercises. It provides a unique visual guide to the position of the fingers in each key, so that you can make each second of practice count.

      The Grades in this book correspond to ABRSM Grades 1—3. Always check the most recent copy of the syllabus before taking an exam though.

      The Grid

      Scale and Arpeggio books generally aren’t very interesting. Traditional notation also does little to unlock the underlying secrets that underpin the patterns of Scales and Arpeggios. Students often struggle to grasp fingering patterns, which leads to uncertain intonation, and a lack of confidence. 

      24 Keys is different. It aims to lead the student through the learning process by teaching the unique pattern of each key visually. In addition, by relating keys to the Circle of Fifths, a more solid understanding is developed. This means the material is learnt more quickly, and instinctively, and gives more time to concentrate on other things like tuning, bowing, and intonation.

      The key to our
