The First Book of Scales, Chords, Arpeggios & Cadences (Alfred's Basic Piano Library)
These excellent all-inclusive books teach scales, chords, arpeggios, and cadences at three different levels. The FIRST book (#11761) accommodates the learning pace of younger students such as those in Alfred's Basic Piano Course, Level 2. The BASIC book (#5754) is slightly more in-depth, presenting scales, chords, arpeggios, and cadence studies in all the major and minor keys. The COMPLETE book (#5743) features everything in the BASIC book, plus extra features like a 12-page explanation that leads to complete understanding of the fundamentals of major and minor scales, chords, arpeggios, and cadences; a clear explanation of scale degrees; and a two-page guide to fingering the scales and arpeggios.

Great for adult piano students
By Nanette "Nanette W" - May 25, 2010I took piano lessons as a child, but C major was the only scale I learned. After I saw the advantages of practicing scales as my daughter took lessons, I really wanted to practice scales. But, I had no idea how to learn the right notes or fingering. First, I boughtThe Complete Book of Scales, Chords, Arpeggios and Cadencesin the same series. The amount of information was too overwhelming. Next, I tried theThe First Book of Scales, Chords, Arpeggios & Cadences (Alfred's Basic Piano Library). It's perfect. The book description says it's for children, but it's good for adults as well. There's nothing I'd change about this book. Thank God I found it.
Best BEGINNING Book on Learning Scales
By A. FLYNN - August 8, 2012This is a must have for all beginning music students.
This is a great beginning book on Scales. It gives you all the BASICS and is best for a beginner.
If you are a more advanced musician I would suggest getting "The Complete Book of Scales." The complete book goes more into detail about how to build a scale and is much more in-depth than this book.
This is a book for beginners. This book does give you all the scales in the circle of fifths, as well as the relative minor scale for each key as well.
It includes the scale for each key in:
Parallel Motion
Contrary Motion
Major Cadences
Major Arpeggio
Definitely get this book if you are a beginner. If you are more advanced this book is okay, but I would recommend "The Complete Book of Scales"
Excellent beginner and intermediate exercise book
By Sonshine - March 7, 2011Great book to introduce scales, etc. for the beginner using one hand at a time, or for the intermediate student as warm up and exercise book. I would highly recommend.
