Write any Grade 3 minor scale in either form in three steps, letters, key signature, raised notes; then name a written scale from its notes.
Worked example: G melodic minor, going up
- Letters: G to G in semibreves, one note on each line and space.
- Key signature: G minor shares B flat major's two flats, B flat and E flat.
- Raised notes: going up, the 6th and 7th: E natural and F sharp.
So the accidentals are B flat and F sharp, and E needs none.
Quick check
In step 3, why does the E need no accidental?
