Scale-A-Day Calendar

December 11, 2021 /

Make this the year of scales!

My Scale-A-Day Calendar features a year full of short, daily scale exercises. This 61-page downloadable/printable PDF features a major and minor key signature, with one scale, mode, chord, or pattern to practice each day.

  • Range: low E to altissimo G
  • Level: Intermediate to advanced

Great for teachers and students to use to improve scale technique during daily practice routines!

Please note: This download was originally entitled Scale-A-Day Calendar 2022. This calendar was created to use for any year (not specifically 2022), so if you have already purchased this under this title you do not need to purchase this again. Please contact me if you have any questions.
