Image set MTBR; scales in fifths Part of Music theory blue red
Each of these files shows the 7 tones in the respective pair of scales as a contiguous section in a circle of stacked fifths. The usual sequence of tones can be derived from this one by reading those with light and strong labels separately: minor: la ti do re mi fa so la       major: do re mi fa so la ti do       (Semitones are at borders between light and strong.)
