Notes from April 22/ April 25Video chat Harmonic Minor part 2 I was explaining how to harmonize E harmonic minor scale
It is the same as natural minor except of sharp VII
You can use harmonic minor every time you would use a natural minor!!!!
It's a very cool scale that will add some spice to your playing!

OK, that makes sense. I assume that the same pattern applies to other scales?
If I understand correctly:
That is C dorian, as in key of C?
If we consider D major:
D E F# G A B C#
(key of) D dorian will be E F# G A B C#
Correct or incorrect?
How about scales that don't have seven notes, such as the pentatonic? Are the last two names left out?
Well you have to understand the numbers and degrees of the scales. Dorian is always II in any major scale
So if you are trying to find D dorian you have to find from what scale it's coming from! In this case it's C major
In the example you have made you are almost correct but the mode will be E dorian, you call it based on the note you are starting with!
