Scale Notes & Info
Scale: C harmonic major
Description: A scale like major but with a lowered 6th (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ♭6, 7). It sounds halfway between major and harmonic minor and generates an interesting set of modes used in jazz to colour major and dominant chords with unusual but still tonal alterations.
