In this video you will learn how to read
this.
There are three types of minor scales.
They are natural minor, harmonic minor
and melodic minor.
The first type of minor scale is the natural minor scale.
We talked about these scales in the last
video.
Here is F major.
Let us find it's relative minor.
So with F major you go down three half
steps from the note F to the note D.
F major has one flat which is the B flat.
So put B flat on the D minor scale.
This is a D natural minor scale.
The next minor scale is harmonic minor.
With harmonic minor you take a natural minor scale and
raise the seventh note of the scale.
So with A minor the seventh note of the
scale is the note G.
Now raise it to G sharp.
We have created the a harmonic minor scale.
Let us do D minor.
D minor has one flat which is B flat.
The seventh note of D minor is the note C.
Now raise it to C sharp yes you can have a sharp
and a flat in the same scale.
Now with B flat minor the seventh note of the scale
is A flat.
So raise A flat to natural.
The last minor scale is melodic minor.
With melodic minor you take a natural minor scale
and raise the sixth and seventh note of the scale.
So with A minor the sixth and seventh notes are
the note F and the note G.
So raise the note F to F sharp and the note G to G sharp.
With F minor the sixth and seventh notes of the scale
are D flat and E flat.
So raise the note D flat to D natural
and E flat to E natural.
With G sharp minor the sixth and seventh notes of the
scale are E and F sharp.
So raise the note E to E sharp
and the note F to F double sharp.
Melodic minor is usually displayed as an
ascending and descending scale.
It is melodic minor ascending
and natural minor descending.
And here is what you have learned today.
