AUDIO PRODUCTS
purely-pentatonic Purely Pentatonic

Progressive and interactive exercises for building aural musicianship. Starting with very basic intonation exercises in 2 or more parts, students and teachers will reinforce their facility with pentatonic tonalities. Intervals found within the pentatonic scales are introduced and practised in solfa and letter names. Extension tasks using all 5 pentatonic scales are included.

This resource is great for beginning or established teachers who need a sequenced set of exercises to use in lessons in conjunction with their repertoire practice. It is also interactive, so is a wonderful tool for school-age students to learn with at home.

KMEIA thanks Tess Laird for her contribution towards creating Purely Pentatonic.
