Brainlag PlusDegrees and the key of a melody
Degrees of the scale above and below the tonic, and how to tell whether a melody is in a major key or its relative minor.
Degrees, above and below the tonic
Each note of a scale is a degree, numbered from the key note as the 1st. At Grade 3 a melody may also go below the tonic: the note just below it is still the 7th degree, and the one below that the 6th.
