LESSON #13 - FULL SCALE INVERSIONS

Lesson Series by Todd Simpson

Prepare yourself, as we are about to tackle our most challenging lesson yet. We are going to combine two types of inversions and apply them to the A Minor Scale. We are going to play the scale in a somewhat non-standard fingering that will allow greater efficiency of finger movement and prep for lessons down the road. We are going to use two inversions here. One inversion for descending, then a different one for ascending. We have done these same inversions in lesson 10 and 11, now are going to use them in full scales. Here is the tablature for the descending first part.

Here is the tablature for the second part using a different inversion.
