Major Scales Made Stupid Simple: Just Two Tetrachords

Think major scales are complicated? Not anymore. In this short video, I show you how to build any major scale using two identical tetrachords connected by a single whole step. That’s it. That’s the trick. That’s the whole system the scale police have been hiding from you. Here’s the formula: • A tetrachord = 4 notes with the pattern: whole, whole, half • Stack two of those, add a whole step between them… and voilà: instant major scale. We break it down visually and aurally so your brain and fingers get it — fast. Once you grasp this, every major scale on the planet suddenly makes sense. Even the terrifying ones with seven sharps or flats (they’re still annoying, but less scary). 🎯 What you’ll learn: • The logic behind major scale construction • How to build scales without memorizing all of them • Why music theory is just pattern recognition in disguise 📍Perfect for beginners, theory-phobes, and music educators who are tired of watching people cry over key signatures. #MajorScaleHack #MusicTheoryForHumans #TetraChordTrick #ScalesSimplified #MusicMadeEasy #TheoryShorts #PianoTutorial #eartraining #pianotipsforbeginners
