Comprehensive Scale Catalog: Five-Tone Scales in Equal Temperament

This page is part of Flutopedia's Comprehensive Scale Catalog ... a listing of many (many) scales that can be played on Native American flutes.

This page shows only scales with five tones per octave and using 12-tone Equal Temperament.

Note that not all five-tone scales are listed on this page. The next page in this sequence of web pages provides Pattern Scales. These scales do not have a name or designation that I could location, but the pattern of notes does provide an interesting and potentially useful scale.

The root note of each scale is shown in blue, such as Finger diagram closed closed closed closed closed closed.

The name I use for this scale comes from: Based on the scale used by Michael Graham Allen for his Desert Flute

Entry on the Map of Native American Flute Tunings page: Four-hole Mojave

Scala names: Raga Purnalalita, Chad Gadyo: Jewish, Ghana Pentatonic 1, Nando-kyemyonjo: Korea

Piano Encyclopedia names: Chad Gadyo [Jewish]; Ghana Pentatonic I; Nando-kyemyonjo; Raga Purnalalita

Scale Omnibus names: Chad Gadyo [Jewish]; Ghana Pentatonic; Nando-Kyemyonjo; Raga Purnanalita

Notes: A subset of the Natural Minor scale used by a number of flute makers for four-hole rim-blown flutes. According to Jon Norris (personal communication, 9/17/2018), it matches what Michael Graham Allen calls his Desert flute, and what Geoffrey Ellis calls Mojave. Geoffrey's Mojave 6 is the full Aeolian (Natural Minor). The old Mojave artifacts were all over the place in tuning.
