Major Locrian scale "Harmonic Materials of Modern Music" devotes several pages to the major Locrian, or more precisely to its transpositional set class, a concept Hanson pioneered. He names this transpositional class the "seven-tone impure major second scale", and notes that the various modes of the major Locrian can all be defined as the whole tone scale with one additional note, and where that note occurs does not affect the transpositional class. He also notes that the scale has the property that every three-note chord possible in the twelve tone chromatic scale already appears in the major Locrian. Examples are given of the
Bebop scale Harris. Ben-Hur further elaborates on the concept of placing additional chromatic passing tones between other notes in the scales. The bebop harmonic minor scale (or bebop natural minor scale, as listed in Mark Levine's "The Drop 2 Book") is derived from the harmonic minor scale and has a chromatic passing tone (an additional 7) between the 6th and the 7th notes. \override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f \relative c' { </score> It contains all of the notes of both the harmonic minor scale and the natural minor scale (Aeolian mode) of the same root.
