![]() Similar to the harmonic minor but in different positions. Major chords at V and IV, Minor chords at i and ii, diminished at ii and vii and an augmented chord at bIII position. Starting with The C Natural Minor scale you use each of the 7 scale note names. Minor Harmonic Systems for the Three Minor Scales C Natural Minor System It is representing the position relative to a major scale or the interval position.įor the scale of C#, the third interval is E# in the major scale and in the minor scale it would become flat and be E, but the position would still be bIII although the note name does not have a flat. The assignment is to use a as a b or superscript flat symbol in front of the position name, as in bIII the third position or bVI for the 6th position.īe careful not to relate the flat position to the note name. The position numbers are often used as the same position name as used in major scale when referring to the minor scale, however to ensure that that you work within the interval position they get assigned the flat position name. PositionĮxamine the table and you will see that the 3, 6, and 7 positions will be flat chords (flat notes start the chord at these positions) depending on the minor scale used. Lets start by looking at the C Major and minor scales. The numbering system for minor scales is the same as for major scales expect that there is a use of an accidental (small note to left of roman numerals) to indicate that the position is flat. The difference for each is in the number of flat or minor notes in the scale as compared to the major scale. Three Scales Three SystemsĪs we discovered in working with scales there are three minor scales and therefore three Harmonic Systems to be developed. It will apply for the minor harmonic systems. Review the major harmonic system for the process and procedure to create harmonic systems. It is something that can be taught early and give a student a much needed boost to there theory and master of music.Īs before the definitions apply. ![]() Moving to and learning these systems is often reserved for advanced students. ![]() Chords and Scales Combined to Make a System for Minor KeysĪ.k.a – The Minor Diatonic Harmonic Systems ![]()
