Ionian Mode
OK. So let's now talk about ionian mode. So this is more commonly known as a major scale. However, mode did come before major and minor scales. So more recently, we've taken this number one, the ionian and the number six, the Aeolian to create major and minor scales, but it's exactly the same as a major scale. So the order for a ionian scale is the same as a major scale. So it's the same tones and semitones as a major scale. So it's C major. So C major will use the pattern tone tone semitone, tone, tone tone semitone to work out the notes in the major scale. It's exactly the same for the ionian. So next, let's have a look at Dorian.
