Scale Notes: 1101010110101 Passing Notes: 1111011111111 Minor Pentatone: 1001010010101 Minor Pentatonic: 1001010100101 Blues: 1001011100101

Is considered a Minor Scale. Is often mixed with Minor & Kiurdi. Passing Notes: #2^nd, #4^th, #6^th, and #7^th. Drop the 2^nd and 5^h notes to form the Minor Pentatone Scale Drop the 2^nd and 6^th notes to form the Minor Pentatonic, then add a #4^th to form the Blues Scale Ussak Neva version 1: Ascending Ussak, Descending Natural Minor (give it a #2^nd) Ussak Neva version 2: Ussak with a #6^th note, a.k.a. Javanese Scale. 1101010101101 Is mode of Minor, Major, and Dorian Scales – E Ussak = A Minor = C Major = D Dorian ~ E Minor – D Ussak = G Minor = Bb Major = C Dorian ~ D Minor – If you start 3 scale degrees forward you get the Minor scale – If you give it a #2^nd you get Minor in the same key as the original Ussak – If you start 2 scale degrees back you get the Major scale – If you start 1 scale degree back you get the Dorian scale Is Similar to Hijaz, Roumaniko, and Harmonic Minor – D Ussak ~ D Hijaz ~ G Harmonic Minor ~ C Roumaniko – If you give it a #3^rd you get Hijaz – If you give it a #3^rd and start 1 scale degree back you get Roumaniko – If you give it a #3^rd and start 4 scale degrees forward you get Harmonic Minor To Modulate to Hijazkiar, Nihavent, and Pireotikos – D Ussak ~ D Hijazkiar ~ G Nihavent ~ D Pireotikos – If you give it a #3^rd and #7^th you get Hijazkiar – If you give it a #3^rd and #7^th and start 4 scale degrees forward you get Niavent – If you give it a #3^rd, #4^th, and #7^th you get Pireotikos To Modulate to Rast, Huzam, Seghiah, Tabanahiotiko. Note: Definitions of Rast, Huzam and Tabanahiotiko vary amongst players. – D Ussak ~ Bb Rast ~ Bb Huzam ~ Bb Segiah ~ Bb Tabanahiotiko – Give it a b5^th and start 2 scale degrees back to become Rast descending, and make more use of passing notes, like b3^rd, #4^th, and b8^th(relative to root note of Rast). – Give it a #7^th note and start 2 scale degrees back to modulate to Huzam, and then you can use b2^nd, #4^th, #5^th, and #6^th(?) passing notes (relative to root note of Huzam). – Give it a #7^th and b4^th note and start 2 scale degrees back to modulate to Seghiah, and then use passing notes (relative to root note of Seghiah) #4^th, and b2^nd (above the ovtave) – Give it a b4^th note and start 2 scale degrees back to modulate to Tabanahiotiko To modulate to another root note within the same scale: – D Ussak ~ A Ussak ~ G Ussak – Give it a #2^nd and start 3 scale degrees back to get Ussak with different root note but similar character – Give it a b5^th start 3 scale degrees forward to get Ussak with different root note but similar character
