If you start on a low C (concert Bb), the notes are as follows: C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B and C. Specifically, for the C chromatic, you move up one partial to get from C to C#, hold that partial up to the G and go up one more partial to go to the G# and that partial takes you up to the first octave. In Bb Treble Clef (most common for beginners, the low C is one line below the staff and the octave above is the third space from the bottom) Here are the fingerings:

C-open

C#/Db- 123

D- 23

E- 12

F- 1

Gb/F#- 2

G- open

Ab- 23

A- 12

Bb- 1

B- 2

C- open

Every note is exactly a 1/2-step apart, the last note (in this case 'C') is the same note as you began on but an octave higher. Reverse the above to go back down the scale.

Is it rare to play a high high b flat on a trombone in eighth grade?

It's extremely rare to play a high b flat in 8th grade. However when I was in 8th grade we had a scale test to see our ranges. the low brass was expected to do a written full range chromatic scale from low E flat to a high B flat, Two octave F major scale and a two octave G major scale, then we were to do one octave for the rest of the scales.


What is a chromatic scale in musical terms?

A chromatic scale is a scale where each note of it is separated by a semiton - that is - it includes all the notes that exist. C1, C1#, D1, D1#, E1, F1, F1# ... B1, C2, C2#, D2... etc For instance, in a keyboard that would mean you'd play all the white and black keys sucessively.

How many notes are in an octave chromatic scale?

In the simplest terms, every chromatic scale contains every note. The chromatic scale is actually not a tonal scale, so you wouldn't really refer to it as the 'c' chromatic scale as you would a major, minor, or modal scale. The chromatic scale is made up of half-steps in succession either ascending or descending order. If you were to start the chromatic scale on 'c' then the notes would be: c-c#-d-d#-e-f-f#-g-g#-a-a#-b at which point the scale would just repeat itself in the next octave. The easiest way to understand it is to sit at a piano, find 'c' (or any other note) and play every note (black and white) until you get to the next 'c' (or the note that you started with). There's your chromatic scale! Some theorists will argue that the chromatic scale is a tonal scale. Their arguments can be justified very easily. However, if you are just beginning to experiment with the chromatic scale, I recommend thinking of it in the way described above for the time being. Once you have a better understanding of the fundamentals, read more about it! Hope that helps! It's a great scale to use in all sorts of music. www.myspace.com/thekilnsband
