However, if we have a major scale, for example, here, I've written out c major scale, we can change this to a minor scale or an Aeolian scale by flattening the third, flattening the sixth and flattening the seventh. So if we wanted to change C major to C minor or to C A mode, we flatten the third. So we change this E to an E flat, we flatten the six which would be this A to an A flat and then the seven which is this B to a B flat and this will create AC AOL scale also known as AC minus scale. So that's the Olean, it's just another way really of saying a natural minor scale. Next, we're gonna have a look at Locrian...
