Bruce Arnold – Scale Analysis

Scale Analysis is a mega course that melds your aural comprehension with your intellectual understanding of scales, keys and chords into one unified whole.

Scale Analysis is hands down the most comprehensive course on the subject of ear training and how it applies to hearing chord progressions and scales. It will teach you to hear multiple scales and chords all within a key center. This skill will revolutionize your improvisations and compositions and change your whole approach when working with chords and scales.

This idea of hearing entire chord progressions within a key center is not new. Take a look at any jazz standard or pop tune and you will find a melody that is largely diatonic to a key center while multiple chords are present. Unfortunately, most educational systems use a cookie cutter approach to understanding and playing over chord changes, wherein each chord is its own key center. In other words, the root of each chord is thought of as the new key center.

What You’ll Learn In Scale Analysis

As stated, the overarching goal behind the Scale Analysis course is to teach you how to hear multiple chords all in one key center. By honing this ability you will find improvising over chords to be much simpler and more musical at the same time. Initially, this course presents a way to understand how you should hear chords and their associated chord scales. Secondly, it develops your ear so that you are truly hearing and playing using these concepts.
