Overview of Musical Scales

The text highlights the core scales covered in foundational music theory:

Tonal Foundations: The major, natural minor, harmonic minor, and melodic minor scales form the building blocks of Western melody and harmony.

Specialized Textures: The chromatic scale (moving entirely in semitones), the whole tone scale, and the pentatonic scale (a five-note structure) provide distinct sonic colors used across various genres.

Using S for semitone and T for tone is a helpful shorthand to map out the exact intervals and step patterns required to construct each scale accurately.
