However, we&#8217;re focusing on the classification of scales according to note aggregate which is concerned with the number of tones in the scale per octave.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like us to refresh our minds on the concept of scale before doing so.<\/p>\n<h2>A Quick Review On The Concept Of Scale<\/h2>\n<p>There are so many ways to define a scale.<\/p>\n<p>However, according to Jermaine Griggs, <em>&#8220;a scale is a succession of notes in ascending or descending order, with a fixed distance between successive notes&#8221;.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I believe the above definition is self-explanatory. For example, playing a succession of notes from C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;to C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;on the piano, this produces the C <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hearandplay.com\/main\/natural-major-scale\">natural major scale<\/a>:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;which is the most basic scale on the piano that almost everyone got started out on the piano with.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Besides\u00a0 The Major Scale&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There are a variety of other scales and these scales are classified according to any of the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Culture area<\/p>\n<p>Usage<\/p>\n<p>Tonality<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>However, we&#8217;re focusing on the classification of scales according to note aggregate in this lesson.<\/p>\n<h2>The Classification Of Scales According to Note Aggregate<\/h2>\n<p>The classification of scale according to note aggregate is concerned with the number of tones in the scale per octave.<\/p>\n<p>There are a handful of scale classes according to note-aggregate, let&#8217;s check them out.<\/p>\n<h3>Monotonic Scales<\/h3>\n<p>A monotonic scale has one note per octave and is found in African folk music. For example, within the compass of one octave (C to C):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;there&#8217;s just one scale tone (C):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Ditonic Scales<\/h3>\n<p>When a scale has two notes per octave, such a scale is said to be ditonic. There are tons of ditonic ethnic instruments in different parts of the world.<\/p>\n<p>Check out some of these ditonic scales:<\/p>\n<p>C-C#-C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,Cs,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nC-D-C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nC-Eb-C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,Eb,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nC-E-C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nC-F-C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,F,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nC-F#-C:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,Fs,C,&amp;color=3399FF&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Attention:<\/strong> The term <em>ditonic <\/em>should not be confused with the term <em>diatonic<\/em>.
