7 Positions in One Scale - Part 4 (5th Position)
The third of the seven positions starts on the 3rd Scale Degree of the Major Scale and is called 5th Position... this is playing in the key E on the C Harmonica. The Mode created is called the Phrygian Mode.
The notes are as follows:
E F G A B C D E (same notes as the C Major Scale, just starting from E)
Intervals:
Half | Whole | Whole | Whole | Half | Whole | Whole
Scale Degrees (Relative to its equivalent Major Scale):
1 Flat-2 Flat-3 4 5 Flat-6 Flat-7 8
Full Scale:
1+ 1 2+
2+ 2" 2 3" 3 4+ 4 5+
5+ 5 6+ 6 7 7+ 8 8+
8+ 9 9+ 10 10'+ 10+
Though not a common position by any stretch of the word, it's a fun position to experiment with when playing in Minor. The Flat-2 is an interesting sound.
