RollPlay Musical Dice Game (bass and treble versions)

RollPlay is a comprehensive approach to uniting the skills and theoretical information necessary for developing strong technique on any instrument. It provides an organizational structure and explains time-tested tools for dealing with the daunting amount of information that all musicians must assimilate. The unique feature of this method is a feedback mechanism in the form of a dice game that keeps the mind focused and makes a sport of technical study. Openended, conceptual exercises for advanced development are also included making it appropriate for any musician serious about improving their game. Bass and treble clef editions are available.

The goal of the first game in the book:


  1. Play all scales (major, natural minor, harmonic minor, melodic minor, jazz melodic minor, whole-tone, whole-half diminished and halfwhole diminished) in sixteenth notes, the full range of your instrument at a tempo of quarter note = 100 bpm.
  2. Play all scales in thirds in sixteenth notes, the full range of your instrument at a tempo of quarter note = 100 bpm.
  3. Play the arpeggio of all scales in sixteenth notes, the full range of your instrument at a tempo of quarter note = 100 bpm.
