Sometimes scales are played with a slight accent on every fourth note. Ensure the scale maintains a regular rhythm. Start slowly, concentrating on fingering and playing each pair of notes at the same time, and gradually build up the speed. Scales are generally played with the hands one octave - that is, eight white notes - apart. There’s no particular trick to this - it just takes time to get used to it. Once you’ve practiced both hands separately, it’s time to play the two hands simultaneously. Should you be playing more than one octave, replace the ‘5’ with a ‘1’, continuing the sequence from the start, thus: 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1… Playing Both Hands Together
To play the descending one octave G harmonic minor scale, reverse the sequence thus: 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Should you wish to play more than one octave, repeat the sequence from finger ‘4’, thus: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1, 4, 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1, 4, 3… The ascending one octave G harmonic minor scale is most easily played by the left hand with the fingering 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1.
