Intervalic Motion

4ths

Ascend through the scale stepwise, but between each note, play the 4th above the last note. In other words, asecend a 4th, descend a 3rd, ascend a 4th, descend a 3rd... For descending we do the opposite: descend a 4th, ascend a 3rd, descend a 4th, ascend a 3rd...

5ths

Ascend through the scale stepwise, but between each note, play the 5th above the last note. In other words, asecend a 5th, descend a 4th, ascend a 5th, descend a 4th... For descending we do the opposite: descend a 5th, ascend a 4th, descend a 5th, ascend a 4th...
