Instructions;
bulletRead these instructions while the applet is loading.
bulletThe table opposite contains all the notes in the harmonic minor scales up to and including 4 sharps and flats.
bulletThese are E, B,  F# & C#, D, G, C & F harmonic minors.
bulletYour job is to find all the notes to these 8 scales.
bulletRemember to find the raised 7ths in each scale.
bulletTo begin, find the notes from the E minor scale and left-click with your mouse on each one in turn.
bulletEach note you click on will disappear from the table and appear below it.
bulletNow find the notes from the scale with one flat (D minor).
bulletContinue in this way till you have found all the notes from the minor scales up to and including sharps and flats.
bulletIt doesn't matter which scale you do first or last but it does matter if you include a wrong note.
bulletThere are only just enough notes to cover the specified scales so if you include a wrong note then it won't be there for the scale it belongs to and you will have to start again.
bulletClick the 'refresh' button to start anew.
