What is the pattern of a minor scale steps w equals whole step h equals half step

1 answer

The pattern of whole and half steps in a natural minor scale is as follows:

  • Whole step (W)
  • Half step (h)
  • Whole step (W)
  • Whole step (W)
  • Half step (h)
  • Whole step (W)
  • Whole step (W)

In summary, the pattern for a natural minor scale can be represented as:

W - h - W - W - h - W - W

For example, in the A minor scale, the notes are A, B, C, D, E, F, and G, corresponding to the natural minor scale pattern.
