Harmoni Minor Scale

The harmonic minor scale is one of the three popular minor scales. Those include the natural minor scale, melodic minor scale, and the harmonic minor scale. To me the harmonic minor scale has an Egyptian sound to it.

The difference between the natural minor scale and the harmonic minor scale is that the harmonic minor scale has a raised 7th degree, making it a major 7th. I'll break down the notes, intervals, and associated chords of an a harmonic minor scale below.
