Scale Notes & Info
Scale: C scriabin
Description: A six-note scale derived from Alexander Scriabin's 'mystic chord' or Prometheus chord, often spelled as a synthetic hexatonic built on stacked 4ths and tritones. It yields highly ambiguous, non-functional harmony and is used in post-tonal classical music and adventurous jazz to mimic Scriabin's shimmering, mystical sonorities.
