Press to hear the scale played ascending.
The minor pentatonic with the flat fifth added — the extra "blue note" between the fourth and fifth is the whole point.
The notes
Each degree links to its pitch page. Note names use sharp spelling throughout — every accidental is written as a sharp (C♯, not D♭), the same convention as the note pages.
Degrees & steps
| Degree | Note | Semitones from root | Step to next |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | F♯ | 0 | 3 semitones |
| ♭3 | A | 3 | whole |
| 4 | B | 5 | half |
| ♯4 | C | 6 | half |
| 5 | C♯ | 7 | 3 semitones |
| ♭7 | E | 10 | whole |
The step formula is 3–2–1–1–3–2 semitones — 6 steps that sum to a full octave (12 semitones) and return to F♯.
