Scale of the Day: E Flat Pythagorean Dorian no 4

EFlatPythagoreanDorianNo4

The E Flat Pythagorean Dorian no 4 Scale. The Pythagorean Dorian Scale is normally a balanced scale, with each interval's inversion contained within the root scale sequence and featuring equal parts otonal and utonal member pitches. This results in a neutral color for the Dorian harmonic sound. With the subtractive Dorian pictured above this color shades just slightly toward something brighter with the absent utonal 4/3 perfect fourth.
