[Harp-L] Great 5th position idea



I was talking with a student about the harp-l 5th position discussion
and while I was giving my take on 5th, I realized I used something
that I do not think had been discussed this time around.  I call it
the phrygian major scale because it is just like the phrgyian scale
but with a major 3rd.  It is the 5th mode of the harmonic minor scale
and sounds eastern and klezmery and works for all kinds of music.

No dash means blow
dash means draw
* means 1/2 step bend
! means overdraw

E F    G#   A   B  C  D
                          1  1-
2 2-**3-***3-**3-  4  4-
5 5-   6-*   6-  7-  7   8-
8 9-   9!    10- 10*10

E would be the tonic.
