Relative minor scales are essential for beginner music theory. They are scales that share the same key signature as their relative major scales but start on a different note.
This relationship gives the music a connected yet distinct feel. Understanding relative minors helps you recognise that every major scale has a relative minor scale starting on its sixth degree. Similarly, a minor scale’s relative major starts on its third degree.
This concept is crucial for beginners to grasp as it enhances your ability to play, compose, and understand music. It allows you to create different moods with the same set of notes. Learning relative minors is like discovering a hidden room in music where the ambience changes but the foundational elements remain the same. This knowledge is a foundational step in your musical journey, enriching your skills and creativity.
