&The Modes
T 4 10 50 .9
&     All of our music is based on the Greek modes.  The most commonly used
T 4 10 45 .9
are the Ionian (our major scale) and the Aeolian (the natural minor scale).
T 4 10 40 .9
The common change in the "minor" scale - or sixth mode - is raising the 7th
T 4 10 35 .9
tone a 1//2 step, so that we have the dominant 7th as though it were a major
T 4 10 30 .9
key.
T 3 10 40 .9
     The modes are very easy to understand and use on the harp.  Simply set
T 3 10 35 .9
