Consider the reasons for using an alternate fingering in this next exercise, which is in 3rd-position F major. As a pair, the 2nd and 3rd fingers are stronger than the 3rd and 4th ones. So for the top three strings, instead of using the fingers indicated in the pattern (3-4-3), use 2-3-2.

Applying Your Skills: Performing Pieces Using Major Arpeggios

It’s unusual to find music that’s made up of just major arpeggios. However, if you’re determined, there’s one genre you can look to: military bugle calls. The bugle can play the notes of a major chord easily, but it has a much more difficult time playing any other notes. If you hum or whistle some common bugle calls that you know, such as “Reveille” and “Taps,” you’re sounding the notes of a major arpeggio. Instead of the aforementioned titles, though, we’ve chosen two lesser known bugle calls that are quite inventive in their melodies — despite their use of only the notes of the major chord.
