What is the scale of A minor?
A minor is a minor scale based on A, with the pitches A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. Its key signature has no flats and no sharps. Its relative major is C major and its parallel major is A major.
What Is The Harmonic Minor Scale?
The harmonic minor scaleis a type of minor scale that is very similar to the natural minor. The only difference is that we raise the 7th note by a semitone (half step). Using A harmonic minor as an example, it means raising the 7th note, G natural, by a semitone to G# as shown below. The harmonic minor scale is sometimes known as the Aeolian ♯7 sca
Harmonic Minor Formula
When building scales, we can use a formula of semitones and tones (half and whole steps) and each type of scale has a different formula. The harmonic minor scale formula (with S representing semitones and T representing tones) is: T – S – T – T – S – T1⁄2 – S Or shown as whole and half steps it would be: W – H – W – W – H – W1⁄2 – H This will help
Conclusion
If you’re studying an instrument then learning about the harmonic minor scale is definitely something you’ll need to do. It comes up all the time in music exams and is definitely in the music theory exam syllabus. I’ll be adding more details to this post soon so post any questions you have and I’ll do my best to answer.
