Detailed Set of Scales

Post by PiperWhistles »

Hi,

Does anyone have a Detailed Set of Scales for the "D" Whistle?

What I am after is All the different types of Scales and Modes that can be played on a Whistle.

I know the following but there are many, many more that I don't know.

The First Note is From the Bottom of the Whistle.

D Ionian Pentatonic D E F# A B D

E Dorian Pentatonic E F# A B D

Raag ShivranJani E F# G B C# | e


What are the Rest ? ? ?

Thanks a Lot for Your Kind Help It is appreciated.

It's dizzying, the possibilities. Ashes, Ashes all fall down.

@Denny, 'Aeolan' and 'Locrain' should be Aeolian and Locrian and your F# under '4 Flats' should be F...

So how about some blues scales? Because E, F#, A and B are all quite easy on D whistle (just slide onto the half-holes and call it 'bending'!)...

E G A Bb B D E
F# A B C C# E F#
A C D Eb E G A
B D E F F# A B
And we in dreams behold the Hebrides.
