Hi all! I`m trying out for the Nova Scotia Junior Wind Ensemble again this year and I need a bit of help. No one has proabably heard of it but It`s kinda like a band for grades 6-9 and you go and play challenging music and then you have a concert. Anyways, I won`t go into detail but, for the audition you have to do 4 scales, Concert Bb, Ab, F and Bb Chromatic Scales. Even though I did this last year I want to make sure that I`ve got this right.

Concert Bb - C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C
Concert Ab - Bb, C, D, Eb, F, G, A, Bb
Concert F - G, A, B, C, D, E, F#, G

I might have one of those messed up...if so can someone correct it for me? I don`t want to get there and then play it wrong. I think it`s right but I dunno, please check it out.

Chromatic 1 - F, #F, G, #G, A, #A, B, C, #C, D, #D, E, F
Chromatic 2 - C, #C, D, #D, E, #E, F, #F, G, #G, A, #A, B, C

Which chromatic scale is the right one? I`ve have seen a few different ones so I don`t know which to do. Thanks in advance!

All of the concert scales are correct.
Hint: All chromatic scales are THE SAME. As long as you start and end on the same playing every sharp/flat note in between in increments of half steps, any one you play is correct.

Oh, by the way:
C C# D Eb E F F# G Ab A Bb B C
C# D Eb E F F# G Ab A Bb B C C#
D Eb E F F# G Ab A Bb B C C# D

They are all relative (the same), they just start on different notes.
