Background to Chromatics Music Playing Cards:

Learn your scales and chords easily by playing familiar card games with a musical twist using the chromatic scale tone values to build chords and scales.

Once you know your scales and chords, youve find it much easier to to play your musical instrument with greater confidence.

We took a traditional deck of cards and removed all the numbered cards, jacks, queens and kings, replacing them with the twelve notes of the chromatic scale. These twelve tone cards can now be used to learn how to build all scales and chords.

As an aspiring musician, the founder of Knowledge Of Music, Inc felt a compelling need to overcome the challenges of learning to play piano. For those of us that have tried, the obstacles seem insurmountable at times. When confronted with this challenge, after pondering the problem for a bit, it was recognized that learning to play an instrument really presents three separate challenges:

1. Learning to THINK with the alphabet and vocabulary of music, knowing scales and chords, so as to consciously be able to coordinate listening, play and the manipulation of an instrument.

2. Learning to manipulate an instrument with sufficient proficiency that the instrument becomes a natural extension of the player’s body.

3. Learning to listen... and genuinely being able to hear the distinctions between various tones and chords.

Knowledge Of Music, Inc has created Chromatics Music Playing Cards as an alternative technique to help a music student to learn scales and chords even when away from an instrument.
