Talk:Music Theory/Modes

Great article; a couple of comments: i) it would be nice to compare/contrast modes to other similar concepts in the world, for example "Thats" in Indian music. ii) The phrase in the last sentence 'sound through time' does not make sense; is there any sound that is not through time?

Use of Roman and Hindu-Arabic numerals
This is looking good.

Only critique I would make is that Roman numerals are usually reserved for discussing chords where Hindu-Arabic numbers are used for discussing scale tones. Also when using numbers to describe musical ideas we usually prefix any #'s or b's rather than making them a suffix

i.e.

Is how we would describe the deviations each mode has from the Ionian in terms of scale degree structure. Bandcoach (discuss • contribs) 07:38, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
