Talk:Music Theory/Finding the Key and Mode of a Piece

Not actually any discussion here at all so this article is suprisingly useful for probabally being the work of one person. It is a little biased though: "Some music does not really follow a mode at all, but non-modal key signatures are frowned upon". I also don't know if I'd agree that Atonal music is the abstract art of the music world, that's probabally another opinion. That's my two cents. Still I found this article enlightening, I dare not update somthing I'm really no expert on. -DarkShroom

Needs revision
This text would benefit from a bit of cleaning, as there is info that appears to be a bit non-correct. Yet, the article is pretty useful and should make any wikipediophile proud. Mecanismo (talk) 23:46, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Modes Your 1 2 4 5 b7 is more likely Dorian, as that's the Dorian pentatonic scale, and is found in Western folk music, not just japanese.
