Minor scale, melancholic, intuitive, advanced, composing


F# / (G#) A B C# D (D#) (E) F# G# A C#



Top shell: F# minor hexatonic (scale without 7th)

Bottom shell left side: Low 2nd (2:30), missing 7th (3:20)

Bottom shell right side: Major 6th to switch into the Dorian mode (2:50)


Melancholic scale, 9 Note top shell as basis for intuitive and expressive play. On the bottom shell additional notes for advanced playing. Switching between the D on the top shell and D# on the bottom shell needs some musical sense.



Same instrument , played / recorded in the studio by Matthieu:



----



Phrygian variation of the scale. G# on the top shell lowered by one semi-tone to G.


F# / (G#) A B C# D (D#) (E) F# G A C#
