Minor Scalea

There are two forms Of the minor
scale, viz, the melodic and harmonic.
The former Is simetimes called the
vocal minor scale. because It Is easier
to sing than the harmonic. The latter
has an augmented second between the
sixth and seventh degree, and this is
difficult to sing until one has acquired
q certain degree Of proficiency. The
harmonic minor scnle Is more used in
instrumental than In vocal music.
