A five-note subset of the major (Ionian) scale, often equivalent to the major pentatonic but framed as a mode. It emphasises the stable degrees 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6, avoiding strong leading-tone pull and working well over simple major triads in folk, pop and modal contexts.
| Degree | Note | Note+Octave | Semitones | Interval |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | C | C3 | 0 | 1P |
| 2 | E | E3 | 4 | 3M |
| 3 | F | F3 | 5 | 4P |
| 4 | G | G3 | 7 | 5P |
| 5 | B | B3 | 11 | 7M |
