In this video, I show you how to play the G major scale descending on the left hand. This scale is made up of a collection of 7 main white keys, starting and ending on G, whereby the first G played is known as the OCTAVE note and the second G is known as the ROOT note, as it is a G in a lower range. This scale also contains 1 sharp (F).
To play the G major scale on your right hand descending place your little finger on the OCTAVE G, your ring finger on F#, middle finger on E, index finger on D and thumb on C. THEN CROSS YOUR FINGERS OVER so your middle finger plays B, your index finger plays A and your thumb plays ROOT G.
To play the G major scale on your left hand descending place your thumb on OCTAVE G the index finger plays F#, middle finger plays E, ring THEN TUCK YOUR THUMB UNDER YOUR FINGERS so the thumb plays D, index finger plays C, middle finger plays B ring finger plays A and the little finger plays the ROOT G.
