CHROMATIC SCALES. |

There are three methods of fingering the Chromatic Scale, besides a special method which will be found on page 36. Of the three methods given below, that marked A is best adapted for rhythmical and vigorous scales, at a moderate rate of speed, while that marked B is suitable for lighter and more rapid passages. The fingering marked C possesses no particular advantage, and is not often used. |

The above methods of fingering are used for all chromatic scales, on whatsoever note they may begin. Thus, an ascending scale from C sharp, fingered according to method A,would begin with the 3T1 finger, and one from D with the thumb, in both hands, while a scale commencing on E would require the thumb in the right hand and 2™* finger in the left, and so on . |
