Scale Notes & Info
Scale: C six tone symmetric
Description: A hexatonic symmetric scale built from repeating intervals (for example containing 1, ♭2, 3, 4, ♯5, 6). It sits between whole-tone and augmented collections, giving a bright but slightly more grounded sound and is used in modern jazz and contemporary classical writing for augmented chords and non-functional progressions.
Notes (pitch classes): C, C#, E, F, Ab, A
Intervals (formula): 1P, 2m, 3M, 4P, 5A, 6M
