We created some youtube shorts to showcase the sound of all major scales here. *To hear the sound of all minor scales, click here.
Starting with the B flat major scale, next to it is the B major scale. You can hear that each major key is only slightly higher in pitch than the previous scale. The reason for that is because the root note of each major scale is only a half step above the root note of the previous scale.
There are 15 of them, but there are actually only 12 different major scales. Some of them, like c sharp and d flat major keys, are enharmonic major scales, meaning these scales share the same pitches with different note names.
Let us know in the comment if you would like to see other scale videos like these.
Don’t forget to subscribe to our youtube channel so that we can continue making more videos in the future. 😀
