F major scale is a seven-note major scale built on F, consisting of the notes F, G, A, B♭, C, D, and E. The interval pattern is whole, whole, half, whole, whole, whole, half (W-W-H-W-W-W-H). Key points

• Notes: F, G, A, B♭, C, D, E, and back to F an octave higher.
• Key signature: one flat (B♭). This means B is flat throughout the scale unless canceled by a courtesy accidental.
• Relative minor: D minor. Parallel minor: F minor.
• Scale degrees with names: Tonic F, Supertonic G, Mediant A, Subdominant B♭, Dominant C, Submediant D, Leading tone E.

Practical tips

• On piano: start with the white keys F–G–A, then B♭ (black key), C, D, E, and back to F.
• Common patterns: for practice, play ascending and descending each octave, and work hands together as you become comfortable.
• Use the interval formula to check accuracy: 2 steps, 2 steps, 1 step, 2 steps, 2 steps, 2 steps, 1 step.
