Pentatonic Scales - Introduction
1 | 19
Welcome to Chapter 7! In this series, Andre Tonelli will guide you through the pentatonic scales. Pentatonics are an indispensable tool in our arsenal, and very often our knowledge of them is limited to one or two shapes of the minor scale. As you will see, there's a lot more you can do with these scales. Enjoy!
