Hi everyone, hope all is well
The thread about transposing 2nd position to the higher register, got me thinking if I would be able to write a song in the G mixolydian scale.
Now let me be clear, that I am a poet more than I am a musician, so I am able to get a text down, but melodies don’t come easy. Still I like to challenge myself, so I wrote a small text, and for the first time I added notes I’ve been playing around with an online piano (it’s easier for me to visualise on a piano but my brother got my old piano for his studio) and if I’m able to get something done, I might even throw in the sickest harp solo (okay maybe it won’t be that sick but at least I’ll be having fun)
The question is if I got the theory right: In order for a song to be in G mixolydian it has to have a minor 7th as well as end (and maybe also begin) on a G. Or have I got it wrong?
