stop memorizing scales — 1 pattern builds all 12 majors (circle of fifths)

How To Build Every Major Scale & the Circle of Fifths – Music Theory #4
Build *every major scale* and understand how *perfect fifths* create the *circle of fifths*. We’ll use whole/half steps to construct scales in all 12 keys, see how moving by 5ths adds *sharps/flats* in a predictable order, and learn quick shortcuts to name keys fast (including enharmonic cases).

*You’ll learn:*
• Building any major scale from the W–W–H–W–W–W–H pattern
• Why *perfect 5ths* link keys (C→G→D→A… / F→B♭→E♭…)
• *Order of sharps* & *order of flats*
• The full circle of fifths across 12 keys (+ enharmonic keys)
• Fast scale name checks and common pitfalls
