In music , the Phrygian dominant scale (or the Phrygian ♮3 scale ) is the actual fifth mode of the harmonic minor scale , the fifth being the dominant . It is also called the harmonic dominant , altered Phrygian scale , dominant flat 2 flat 6 (in jazz), or Freygish scale (also spelled Fraigish). It resembles the Phrygian mode but with a major third , rather than a minor third . The augmented second between its second and third scale degrees gives it an "Arabic" or Middle Eastern feeling to Western listeners.
18-722: In the Berklee method , it is known as the Mixolydian ♭ 9 ♭ 13 chord scale, a Mixolydian scale with a lowered 9th (2nd) and lowered 13th (6th), used in secondary dominant chord scales for V/III and V/VI. Built on C, the scale is as follows. When related to the scale degrees of the major scale , it reads: The sequence of steps forming the Phrygian dominant scale is: This scale occurs in Indian , Middle Eastern , Balkan , Eastern European , Central Asian , and flamenco music. It
36-454: A major key, such as the VI chord in a VI-ii-V-I progression . Some modal jazz compositions, such as " Nardis " by Miles Davis , are composed in the Phrygian dominant mode. Berklee method In music performance and education , the Berklee method is the music theory , terminology, and practice taught at Berklee College of Music , the largest independent college of contemporary music in
54-502: A tendency toward prescriptivism: "Berklee has its own system of doing things, the Berklee way, the Berklee method. They basically say that when you write things that are theoretically against the Berklee method, then they're incorrect. Even if they sound great. Musically they sound great, but theoretically it's wrong, so it's wrong. Which is not the purpose of music. Music theories are just theories." This music education-related article
72-548: Is a stub . You can help Misplaced Pages by expanding it . Permutation (music) In music , a permutation ( order ) of a set is any ordering of the elements of that set. A specific arrangement of a set of discrete entities, or parameters , such as pitch , dynamics , or timbre . Different permutations may be related by transformation , through the application of zero or more operations , such as transposition , inversion , retrogradation , circular permutation (also called rotation ), or multiplicative operations (such as
90-661: Is also present in Arabic and Egyptian music , in which it is called Hijaz-Nahawand or Hijaz maqam , but is not so frequent. The scale is used in Hebrew prayers and Klezmer music as well, where it is known as Ahava Rabbah , Freygish or just the "Jewish scale", and is called Dastgāh-e Homāyoun in Iran . It is the most common scale in North Indian classical raga Hijaz Bhairav (Basant Mukhari) and South Indian raga Vakulabharanam . It
108-450: Is retrieved entirely by choice of the composer. To receive the retrograde of any given prime, the numbers are simply rewritten backwards. To receive the inversion of any prime, each number value is subtracted from 12 and the resulting number placed in the corresponding matrix cell (see twelve-tone technique ). The retrograde inversion is the values of the inversion numbers read backwards. Therefore: A given prime zero (derived from
126-664: Is sometimes called the Spanish Phrygian scale , Spanish Gypsy scale (see: gypsy scale ) or Phrygian major scale (see: phrygian mode and major scale ) and is common in flamenco music. It can also be found in traditional Spanish songs outside flamenco, everywhere in Spain to varying amounts, but especially in southern and central areas of the country, often being also known as escala andaluza ( Andalusian scale ) in Spanish. Related scales in Spanish traditional music with chromatic notes in
144-550: The closely related " double harmonic scale ". The main chords derived from this scale are I , ♭ II , iv , and vii . When the Freygish scale is used in Klezmer music , the sixth degree may be left unflatted if it is melodically approached and left from above, or the seventh degree may be raised as well. The Phrygian dominant scale is often used in jazz composition and improvisation over secondary dominants of minor chords in
162-563: The cycle of fourths and cycle of fifths transforms). These may produce reorderings of the members of the set, or may simply map the set onto itself. Order is particularly important in the theories of composition techniques originating in the 20th century such as the twelve-tone technique and serialism . Analytical techniques such as set theory take care to distinguish between ordered and unordered collections. In traditional theory concepts like voicing and form include ordering; for example, many musical forms, such as rondo , are defined by
180-461: The form and function of jazz and popular music differs from common practice form and function. For example, Berklee Music Theory - Book 2 recommends the following accompaniment for a given lead sheet , while this progression does not occur in common practice theory since all the chords are seventh chords and unprepared dissonant . Branford Marsalis notes how Berklee music theory may be an inadequate description of traditional jazz as well having
198-400: The next three are the transposed retrograde (backwards), and the last 3 are its transposed inversion (upside down). Not all prime series have the same number of variations because the transposed and inverse transformations of a tone row may be identical, a quite rare phenomenon: less than 0.06% of all series admit 24 forms instead of 48. One technique facilitating twelve-tone permutation is

#1732869853318216-489: The notes of Anton Webern's Concerto): The retrograde: The inversion: The retrograde inversion: More generally, a musical permutation is any reordering of the prime form of an ordered set of pitch classes or, with respect to twelve-tone rows, any ordering at all of the set consisting of the integers modulo 12. In that regard, a musical permutation is a combinatorial permutation from mathematics as it applies to music. Permutations are in no way limited to
234-490: The order of their sections. The permutations resulting from applying the inversion or retrograde operations are categorized as the prime form's inversions and retrogrades , respectively. Applying both inversion and retrograde to a prime form produces its retrograde-inversions , considered a distinct type of permutation. Permutation may be applied to smaller sets as well. However, transformation operations of such smaller sets do not necessarily result in permutation
252-409: The original set. Here is an example of non-permutation of trichords, using retrogradation, inversion, and retrograde-inversion, combined in each case with transposition, as found within the tone row (or twelve-tone series) from Anton Webern 's Concerto : If the first three notes are regarded as the "original" cell, then the next 3 are its transposed retrograde-inversion (backwards and upside down),
270-583: The second degree, varying between a semitone and a tone, are also known as "gama española" ("Spanish gamut") or "gama de Castilla y León" (gamut of Castile and León) and, though found all over Spain, are particularly common in Castilian and Leonese traditional songs. The flatted second and the augmented second between the second and third scale degrees of the scale create its distinctive sound. Examples include some versions of " Hava Nagila ", " Sha Shtil " and " Misirlou ", while other versions of those melodies use
288-567: The twelve-tone serial and atonal musics, but are just as well utilized in tonal melodies especially during the 20th and 21st centuries, notably in Rachmaninoff 's Variations on the Theme of Paganini for orchestra and piano. Cyclical permutation (also called rotation ) is the maintenance of the original order of the tone row with the only change being the initial pitch class , with the original order following after. A secondary set may be considered
306-465: The use of number values corresponding with musical letters. The first note of the first of the primes, actually prime zero (commonly mistaken for prime one), is represented by 0. The rest of the numbers are counted half-step-wise such that: B = 0, C = 1, C ♯ /D ♭ = 2, D = 3, D ♯ /E ♭ = 4, E = 5, F = 6, F ♯ /G ♭ = 7, G = 8, G ♯ /A ♭ = 9, A = 10, and A ♯ /B ♭ = 11. Prime zero
324-454: The world. The "Berklee method" was founded by Lawrence Berk after study with Joseph Schillinger regarding the latter's "elaborate system of composition that employed mathematical permutation and combination process to generate rhythms , harmonies , and melodies ". Later, attempting to codify jazz and popular music practice, the Berklee method often differs from common practice harmony and voice-leading rules or guidelines since
