Re: Please teach chromatic scales !

Even when I was in 7th grade, I never really saw a chromatic scale as anything very challenging. I can remember when I first started out on the clarinet (ny first instrument) that I wanted to learn how to play every note that the instrument was capable of producing. Of course, the altissimo came later, but even so, I was learning chromatics from early on. I just never found it very difficult a concept to master. I don't recall that my tracher ever had difficulty with me learning pieces that had chromatic runs in them, regardless of the note on which they began.

I personally never saw anything that challenging about playing a chromatic scale. I know that one of the first tasks my daughter had to master when we "upgraded" her teacher a couple of years ago was learning all the major/minor scale exercises in the Klosé book. It took her a little time, but she got so she could play them all without much trouble. And really, it's just a basic concentration on the fundamentals.
