Piano Scales Book
Post by robert.williams »
Hi ...
I am struggling to find a book that comprises all piano scales with the proper fingering and with more than 1 octave ...
I found books with the scales requested on certain piano exams, but not with ALL OF THEM together ...
Any ideas?
Thanks so much,
Robert

I think the Associated Board Grade 8 book has the lot in. And so, presumably, would the Trinity/Guildhall G8 book.
I play for my own amazement...

I think that what you might be looking for is The ABRSM Manual of Scales, Broken Chords and Arpeggios. Somewhat unconventionally they are presented altogether rather than seperated into Grades but I think this is probably what you are looking for. All fingerings are given.

In my copy of the ABRSM Manual it has it all, although they only show two octaves.
At Grade 5 the scales are played to three octaves, so I play them in triplets.
Is it still best practice to group the notes into groups of four, whether you are playing two or four octaves?

When you practice slowly, you learn fast.
