Minor Pentatonic Scales

A pentatonic scale is a musical scale with five pitches per octave, in contrast to a heptatonic (seven-note) scale such as the major and minor scales. Pentatonic scales are very common and are found in musical cultures all over the world.

The minor pentatonic scale consists of the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 7th notes of the natural minor scale.

Adding a note between the third and the fourth degrees yields the so-called blues scale.
