	Definition of Minor scale
		This variant is sometimes referred to as the descending melodic minor scale as it is often used in descent from the tonic.
		The ascending melodic minor scale is constructed by sharpening the 6th and 7th scale degrees of the minor scale (or, equivalently, flatting the third degree of the major scale).
		Harmonic minors are constructed by sharpening the 7th degree of the minor scale.

	ORB -- Medieval Music Glossary
		the range of pitches used in a piece or a melodic line; narrow ambitus is typically a sixth or less, normal ambitus an octave or so, and wide ambitus would be an eleventh or more.
		melodic rhythm which reflects the way the text might be read or declaimed.
		A polyphonic composition (eleventh to early twelfth centuries) based on plainchant in which the new voice is added above the original voice; the voices move in a mixture of contrary, oblique, similar and parallel motion, though most of the resultant intervals are fourths, fifths, unisons and octaves.

	Basic chord progressions (illustrated on mandolin)_@TheCipher.com
		Note, when you add the minor scales and their natural triads you essentially complete the picture (the pallets and flavors) and have available the resources of what is called the Major/minor system, or the grand pallet.
		Once you get comfortable with playing it in the ascending direction, play the whole sequence in the descending direction, that is, from the last triad to the first (the higher pitched C Major triad to the lower pitched C Major triad.)
		The next logical things to explore are the minor scale triad pallets, inverted triad voicings, (and on guitar: larger 4, 5, and 6 string voicings and triad barre-chords), seventh chords, seventh chords in progression, inverted seventh chords and beyond.

		Rota's ease of melodic invention and spontaneity are everywhere apparent.
		The predecessor to this volume was the finest recording of a clavichord we had ever heard and this new volume continues the fine recording work in another well-filled disc of early sonatas from the 1740s.
		LORENZO PEROSI (1872-1956): String Quartets No. 1 in A Minor, No. 2 in B Flat, No. 3 in G. NoPerosi appears to be another of those enigmatic eccentrics with whom the history of music is populated, and of whom it would be good to know more, on the strength of this CD.

		His melodic structures were limited and often unimaginative.
		The function of I is that of resolution and stability, whereas V represents instability, tension and drive.
		For instance, the minor second in a chord (eg, a C major chord containing C-G-Eb-E, where the minor second is Eb and E) played by itself is rather sour sounding, but used in a ragtime progression, it nicely kicks off the next chord change.

		While Kerman states that this motet is in G Dorian, the consistent use of two flats indicates that G Aeolian is the true mode.
		Additionally, it has been suggested that Byrd simply wrote this motet in the minor mode of diatonality.
		In either case the cadences are all customary within either the Dorian or minor framework.

		Before you attempt to play this entire sequence of triads of C Major, first make yourself very familiar with the C Major scale fingering we saw earlier.
		Also see the root movement patterns for these two progressions.
