Scale Degrees and Aural Skills

Introduction to Scale Degrees and Aural Skills

In music, we can identify each scale’s step or pitch with a label. These “steps” are called scale degrees. Each scale degree may be identified with a specific name. From the scale degrees, we continue to identify each degree with syllables and either the Fixed Do System or the Moveable Do System. For sight-singing practice, it is useful to know and utilize the scale degree system, or one of the syllable systems. This module reviews these systems.
