Scales

Solfege will play a scale, and you should identify the scale by clicking on the button with the scale name.

Scales are a complex matter. For example is the greek lydian (C-D-E-F-G-A-B-C) different from the medieval and modern lydian (C-D-E-F#-G-A-B-C). The following table describe the scales used in this version of GNU Solfege.
