Yo scale
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Yo scale is a pentatonic scale used in Japanese gagaku imperial court music and Buddhist shomyo chants.
It is defined by ascending intervals of two, three, two, two, and three semitones. An example Yo scale, expressed in western pitch names, is: D - E - G - A - B. This is illustrated below.
