Scales Practice Plan
Late Bk 2:
2 Octave Scales, G, A, B-flat, C
Early Bk 3:
3 Octave Scale, G Major, with MM Acceleration
Late Bk 3:
3 Octave Scales G, A, B-Flat, C
Rotate scales 1/week, so all 4 scales are practiced each month
MM Accel. Daily
Book 4A (Seitz Concerti)
3 Octave Scales G, A, B-Flat, C
Rotate scales 1/week, so all 4 scales are practiced each month
MM Accel. daily
Major and Minor Arpeggios
Book 4B (Vivaldi Amin – Bk4 Bach Double)
3 Octave Scales G, A, B-Flat, C, D
1 Scale/Week
MM Accel. daily
All 5 arpeggios daily: Minor, Major, Relative Minor (sub-mediant), Sub-dominant, Minor Subdominant
Book 5
G, A, A-flat, B-Flat, C, D
1 Scale/Week (rotation is complete every 6 weeks)
Alternate days: MM Acceleration vs. Bowing/Rhythmic variations
All 5 arpeggios daily: Minor, Major, Relative Minor (sub-mediant), Sub-dominant, Minor Subdominant
Alternate days: scales on 1 string…vs…scales in broken 3rds
Bk6
G, A-flat, A, C, B, B-Flat, D, E-flat, E
1 Scale/week (rotation is complete in 2 months)
Major scale + Relative minor scale daily + arpeggios for major scale
Daily: MM Accel. on either Maj or Min…Bowing/rhythmic variation on the other
Alternate days: scales on 1 string…vs…scales in broken 3rds (Major only)
Rotate between 3 days: double stop 6ths, 3rds, 8vas (Major only)
Bk7+
G, A-flat, A, C, B, B-Flat, D, E-flat, E
1 Scale/week (rotation is complete in 2 months)
4 days/week: Major scale + Relative minor scale + arpeggios for Major scale
MM Accel. on either Maj or Min…Bowing/rhythmic variation on the other
2 days/week: scales on 1 string with Arpeggios on 1 string
Rhythmic/Bowing variations as interest dictates
Alternate days: Chromatic scale…vs…Major scale in broken 3rds
Choose 2 per day: dbl stp 6ths, 3rds, 8vas (Major only)
