C Pentatic Scale

1-2-3 skip 1-2 skip

(After you get to “G”go back to “A” and start over)

The normal C Scale has 7 different tones, all in sequential order starting and ending with “C”

The 3 “L” rule is:

Left – Longest – Lowest

Pentatonic means “5 tones” (5 different tones), like the word pentagon means

a figure with 5 sides.
