  1. Find the root note. Start on F♯. The shaded keys show the F♯ major scale ascending from the root up to the next F♯ an octave higher.
  2. Play it hands separately. Play the scale slowly up and down with each hand on its own first, naming each note (F♯ – G♯ – A♯ – B – C♯ – D♯ – E♯), before putting hands together.
  3. Keep an even tempo. Aim for smooth, even notes. The F♯ major scale is the foundation for improvising and for the chords built in F♯.
