Scale of the Day: E Flat Lydian minor 2 no 5 1% wide

EFlatLydianMinor2No5-1PercentWide

The E Flat Lydian minor 2 no 5 1% wide Scale. The Lydian-ness of this scale is still cognitively detectable in spite of the alteration, subtraction and deliberate de-tuning. Even at 6-cents sharp relative to the equal-tempered "tritone," the augmented fourth maintains the coloration the ears associate with Lydian shading.
