The Lydian scale can be described as a major scale with the fourth scale degree raised a semitone, making it an augmented fourth above the tonic; e.g., an F-major scale with a B ♮ rather than B ♭. That is, the Lydian mode has the following formula:
Lydian dominant scale, Lydian ♭7 scale, Mixolydian ♯4 scale Neapolitan major scale, Dorian ♭2 ♯7 scale Neapolitan major scale, (Dorian ♭2 ♯7 scale) leading whole tone scale, Lydian augmented ♯6 scale: Lydian augmented dominant scale: Lydian dominant ♭6: major Locrian scale: half-diminished ♭4 scale, altered dominant ♯2 scale
Lydian chords may function as subdominants or substitutes for the tonic in major keys. [3] The compound interval of the augmented eleventh (enharmonically equivalent to ♯ 4, the characteristic interval of the Lydian mode) is used since the simple fourth usually only appears in suspended chords (which replace the third with a natural fourth, for example C sus4).
Acoustic scale or Lydian dominant scale t-t-t-s-t-s-t So-called because it is close to the scale built on natural overtones and combines Lydian raised fourth with Mixolydian (Dominant) flat seventh; Aeolian dominant scale or Mixolydian ♭ 6 scale t-t-s-t-s-t-t Like natural minor (aeolian) but with a major third; Half diminished scale on C Play ⓘ
Ignoring the root, the scales used for each of these four chords would be B Aeolian (natural minor), B Dorian, C♯ Mixolydian, and E Aeolian, respectively. However, from the perspective of pitch axis theory, we consider all scales to have the B root - so we would say that the progression is B Aeolian, B Dorian, B Lydian, and B Phrygian.
In jazz harmony, the dominant seventh flat five may be considered an altered chord, created by lowering the fifth of a dominant seventh chord, and may use the whole-tone scale, [1] as may the augmented minor seventh chord, or the Lydian ♭ 7 mode, [2] as well as most of the modes of the Neapolitan major scale, such as the major Locrian scale ...
