Full-range scales and arpeggios; chromatic passages; melismatic exercises
What you'll learn
- 1
Imagine a ladder 🪜 with rungs that go up and down — that's like a scale! Each rung is a note, and you sing them in order.

Tap the notes to sing a C major scale going up from C to C.
- 3
Let's sing a scale together — C major, going up and down. 🎤

Now try an arpeggio! An arpeggio is like skipping every other rung on the ladder — sing Do-Mi-So-Do going up, then Do-So-Mi-Do going down.

How many notes do you sing in a full scale going up and down?
- 6
Sing the C major arpeggio: Do-Mi-So-Do (up) then Do-So-Mi-Do (down). Tap the notes as you sing!
