Have a few questions...

[YtseJam92]

For all you music theorists. I have a few questions I can't figure out. I can write out all of the intervals but I can't figure these out for some reason.

Just fill in the blanks:

1.) The PERFECT INTERVALS in any Major scale are:_________

2.)The MAJOR INTERVALS in any Major scale are:________

3.)The PERFECT INTERVALS in any Minor scale are:_________

4.) The MINOR INTERVALS in the Harmonic form of any minor scale are:______

5.)The MAJOR INTERVALS in the Harmonic form of any minor scale are: ______

6.) The MINOR INTERVALS in the ascending melodic form of any minor scale are:______

7.) The MAJOR INTERVALS in the ascending melodic form of any minor scale are:______

8.) The MINOR INTERVALS in the descending melodic form of any minor scale are:_____

9.) The MAJOR INTERVALS in the descending melodic form of any minor scale are:_____

If anyone can answer these, please post your thoughts. Thanks!

1.) The PERFECT INTERVALS in any Major scale are: 4, 5, 8

2.)The MAJOR INTERVALS in any Major scale are: 2, 3, 6, 7

3.)The PERFECT INTERVALS in any Minor scale are: 4, 5, 8

4.) The MINOR INTERVALS in the Harmonic form of any minor scale are: 3, 6

5.)The MAJOR INTERVALS in the Harmonic form of any minor scale are: 2, 7

6.) The MINOR INTERVALS in the ascending melodic form of any minor scale are: 3

7.) The MAJOR INTERVALS in the ascending melodic form of any minor scale are: 2, 6, 7

8.) The MINOR INTERVALS in the descending melodic form of any minor scale are: 3, 6, 7

9.) The MAJOR INTERVALS in the descending melodic form of any minor scale are: 2



There you go. Now try to figure yourself why. See, 4ths, 5ths and 8ths are always perfect. The rest are major or minor. All major on the major scale, and the 3 is minor on the minor scale, otherwise it wouldn't form a minor chord! The 6 and 7 depend on if the scale is harmonic or melodic. The 2 is always major. That's it, for starters
