CINOMR AHEDAR G

Harmonic minor - use the key signature of the related major key. However the 7th note is raised a

half step on both the ascending and descending versions of the scale. i.e. in the key of A minor that

would mean the note G is sharped and it would be written as an accidental on the note and would not

occur in the key signature.

R ONIMCIDOLEM

Melodic minor - use the key signature of the related major key. The 6th and 7th notes are raised a

half step on the ascending scale. i.e. in the key of A minor, the notes F and G would be sharped on an

ascending scale but both of them would be naturals on a descending scale.
