Two minor Scales: A minor and D minor

Hello kids, mums and dads!😄

Last week we learnt the difference between a Major😄 and a minor 😢 Scale.

Remember: Major Scales sound happy! 😄 while minor Scales sound sad...😢

Today we are learning 2 important minor😢 Scales! The A💗minor and the D❤️ minor Scales. But hey! Don't be sad! Playing minor scales doesn't mean we are sad! We can use minor Scales to play beautiful slow music 🎶🎶🎶🎶

The A💗minor Scale uses all the white keys! So it's just like the C Major Scale. The only difference is that the A minor Scale starts in A and finishes in A. Try playing all the white keys from A to the next A. When you play it fast, try to feel the beautiful emotions that it evokes. 🎶

The D❤️ minor Scale also sounds beautiful and sad 😢. But here we play 1 black key.

Let's play all the white keys from D to the next D, but instead of playing B, we will play B flat.
