Murray MacLeod	Minor key signatures are wrong (122* d)	RE: Minor key signatures are wrong	31 May 13
Just FTR, I am well aware of what a chromatic scale is... What I still am unaware of is what "playing chromatically" entails. Like... what would the converse of "playing chromatically " be ? As Will Fly said above, you play what the melody and harmony demand. Many times, wnen playing a piece, there will be passing notes a semitone above the previous note and below the following note. But you know what ...nobody who actually plays gives a toss about how many sharps or flats are in the key signature ...they know where the notes are on the fretboard and they know which notes to play in the tune. Doc Watson never bothered about key signatures ...
