This video provides a beginners guide to creating major scales using tones and semitones (otherwise known as whole-steps and half-steps). The content is equivalent to grade 1 of the ABRSM (associated board of the Royal schools of music) music theory exams. Further videos about major and minor scales are available from www.musictheoryvideos.com
It's important that viewers understand tones and semitones and can read notes on the treble clef stave before watching this video. MusicTheoryGuy has other videos available, on these topics, if required.
