Makam scale

Choose a makam: its scale appears on the staff with AEÜ accidentals, pitch names and intervals; the tonic and dominant are marked. See which mandals are lowered on the kanun, and listen to the scale ascending and descending.

Makam

Tonic (karar) Dominant (güçlü) Intervals

Tapping a note plays that pitch. As is customary, the notes are written an octave higher than they sound.
