5th Sequences. Interval Sequence Lesson
Welcome to the third part in our guide to intervallic sequences. Playing through these interval sequences will improve your jazz technique and aural skills as well as making scale practice more interesting. So far we have covered the 3rd interval and also the 4th interval.
In this lesson we shall take a look at how you can practice playing the C major scale in intervals of a fifth. Let’s take a look at how the 5ths interval sequence would look in C major
C major in 5ths
C, G, D, A, E, B, F, C, G, D, A, E, B, F
The example below shows you the C major scale played in 5ths in both standard notation and tablature.
I hope you enjoy playing through these exercises and in the next lesson I will show you some sequences using 6ths.

Thanks Chester. Glad you find the articles useful.
Hi,
I was wondering why you throw in the D# at the end?
Or was the tab supposed to be an 8 on the second string instead of the 3rd string for the G?
Wow that was a stupid mistake. Thanks Steve. You have a good eye for these things. I will re write the tab when I get some time. Thanks. Yeah the note is on the wrong string.
I LOVE THIS SITE!
