Now we'll see some scales and ragas

Scales:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(music)

In music theory, a scale is a set of musical notes ordered by fundamental frequency or pitch. A scale ordered by increasing pitch is an ascending scale, and a scale ordered by decreasing pitch is a descending scale. or in a simple manner scale is an organized sequence of notes

Generally, there are seven notes in a scale, but it can be increased or decreased
i.e. seven natural notes C,D,E,F,G,A,B  (This is a Major Scale).

Which, we can play like this..

Well ! as you know to play any music, we have to use our hands (in general)  :-)

To help us place the correct finger on the correct note the fingers have given numbers.

First, we'll use left hand to play these notes/keys. Place fingers as given below:

• Finger   1  (Thumb)    to     "C"   (सा )    note 
• Finger   2  (Index)    to     "D"   (रे )   note 
• Finger   3  (Middle)    to     "E"   (गा )   note 
• Finger   1  (Thumb)    to     "F"   (मा )   note 
• Finger   2  (Index)    to     "G"   (पा )   note
• Finger   3  (Middle)    to     "A"   (धा )  note
• Finger   4  (Ring)    to     "B"   (नि )   note
• Finger   1  (Thumb)    to     "C"   (सा )   note

This is ascending order (आरोही क्रम) same fingers you can use for descending order (अवरोही क्रम).

Congrats!  

You have learned your first scale... Keep Practicing

In the next blog, we'll continue this chapter and learn a few more scales.

Happy Learning 😇😇
