Michael sez:

Actually the starting and the end note have little to do with a mode. 



I believe they have a lot to do with a mode - especially with teaching about modes. The "all white keys" but starting/ending on "D" for dorian, "A" for aeolian, etc, has been a GREAT teaching aid for decades - much easier and more user friendly for a beginner than the formula of whole/half steps.


Are we starting to split hairs here?
