STEP 6 – Mapping the 2 Butterfly Areas of the Keyboard
v1.0
To map larger areas of the keyboard, we need to think of it iterating in a nonlinear way, fully aware of its symmetric interlocking structure. The 2 butterfly areas are the first vital step in expanding your map of the keys and blocks, This practice resource – PDF and video – shows you how to approach working to develop this vital skill.
STEP 6 – Improvise Harmonic Blocks on the Butterfly Areas of the Keyboard
v1.0
To practise mapping and tagging the harmonic blocks over these larger areas of keyboard map requires clear focus and a playful, expressive approach. This practice resource – PDF and video – explains how to improvise fluently using the harmonic blocks.
STEP 6 – Read Harmonic Blocks on the Butterfly Areas of the Keyboard
v1.0
Reading the staff is a simple process when you don’t try to process individual notes. You must know the positions of the harmonic blocks within the staff structure and recognise musical shapes “walking” through them. This PDF and demo video set out how to practise developing this fluent reading skill.
