Table
of the
MAJOR DIATONIC SCALES
in all the scales
In this page you can observe the Major Diatonic Scales built in all the tones. Every scale is presented both on stave (ascending and descending), and in a table with the analysis of the ascending tone (t) and semi-tones (st).
For those who are still not familiar with intervals, you can consult the special section devoted to the analysis of the intervals.
A good exercise that you can do is to learn to build the scales, following the tone and semi-tone rule described in the major scales chapter, and then comparing the results with the underlying tables.
