Hi, Beth
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your awesome resources! I really love working with it.
One note about the Major Scale Steps…
I was having a chat with a colleague the other day and we were talking about also visually representing semi-tones in scales as early as possible. Now that I see these steps, I am wondering about how one could depict the semitones? Maybe a smaller step?
Kind regards,
Marica
Good idea! I could create some visuals like that also! I’ll add it to my list of things to do. 😉
