To apply this rule, firstly list the white key names starting from the tonic, which are shown the white column below. a treble or bass clef), there is no possibility of having 2 G-type notes, for example, with one of the notes needing an accidental next to it on the staff (a sharp, flat or natural symbol).Īpplying the rule below ensures that when accidental adjustment symbols are added next to staff notes as part of composing music based on that mode, these accidentals will indicate that the adjusted note is not in that mode. This is needed to ensure that when it comes to writing the mode notes on a musical staff (eg. The rule ensures that every position of a staff is used once and once only - whether that position be a note in a space, or a note on a line. The 7 unique notes in a mode need to be named such that each letter from A to G is used once only - and so each note name is either a natural white name(A.G), a sharp(eg.
This step tries to assign note names to the piano keys identified in the previous step, so that they can be written on a note staff in the Solution section. One or more note in this mode has a sharp or flat, which means that this mode has been transposed to another key. The tonic note (shown as *) is the starting point and is always the 1st note in the mode.Īgain, the final 8th note is the octave note, having the same name as the tonic note. To count up a Half-tone (semitone), count up from the last note up by one physical piano key, either white or black. To count up a Whole tone, count up by two physical piano keys, either white or black. The E mixolydian mode re-uses this mode counting pattern, but starts from note E instead. The mixolydian mode uses the W-W-H-W-W-H-W note counting rule to identify the note positions of 7 natural white notes starting from note G. This can be seen by looking at the Mode table showing all mode names with only white / natural notes used. In their simplest / untransposed form, modes do not contain any sharp or flat notes. This step applies the E mixolydian mode note positions to so that the correct piano keys and note pitches can be identified. G# is the mediant of the E mixolydian modeĪ is the subdominant of the E mixolydian modeī is the dominant of the E mixolydian modeĬ# is the submediant of the E mixolydian modeĭ is the subtonic of the E mixolydian mode These note names are shown below on the treble clef followed by the bass clef.į# is the supertonic of the E mixolydian mode Middle C (midi note 60) is shown with an orange line under the 2nd note on the piano diagram. The 8th note of the E mixolydian mode is E The 7th note of the E mixolydian mode is D The 6th note of the E mixolydian mode is C# The 5th note of the E mixolydian mode is B The 4th note of the E mixolydian mode is A The 3rd note of the E mixolydian mode is G# The 2nd note of the E mixolydian mode is F# The 1st note of the E mixolydian mode is E It also shows the scale degree chart for all 8 notes. This step shows the ascending E mixolydian mode on the piano, treble clef and bass clef.
