Dorian Melodies (Root Shuffling)

Melodies GameHear a melody in one octave, play it back
DorianA minor mode with a raised 6th — bittersweet and jazzy

Hear & play dorian melodies in an octave in time, with root shuffling.

Why

  • Drill dorian in any key on reflex — the minor scale with a ♮6. The root jumps as you go, so you hear the mode itself, not one fixed key.
