Characteristics

• Hexatonality matrix: There are two common and two exceptional interval distributions within the octave of hexatonalities in the catalogue. The two common distributions are: 1) one Reach step, four whole steps, and one single half step (or semitone); and 2) two Reach steps, two whole steps, and two half steps. The two exceptional interval distributions include: 1) three Reach steps, no whole step, and three half steps; and 2) one augmented Reach step (spanning four half steps), three whole steps, and two half steps.
• HexaBluMaj: The name indicates that this hexatonality has a blue lower character or the minor third without second and Ionian upper pitches.
• Step pattern: Ascending from the fundamental (tonic or Do), a Reach step leads to four consecutive whole steps. Then comes a half step that leads up to the octave.
• Scale intervals: Minor third, quart, quint, major sixth, and major seventh.
• Tetra- and trichords: The lower tetrachord is PentaMin, and the upper is IonLydian.
• Harmonic axes: There are two axes, one horizontal and the other tilted, E-W and SE-NW.
• Primary harmonic anchors: The fundamental or North anchor is fully present. The East and West anchors are partial with their heads, and the contrasting or South anchor with its left leg only.
• Secondary harmonic anchors: There are no secondary anchors.
• Moduation potential: Hexatonalities can facilitate modulations. HexaBluMaj may for example help bridge between LoloReachMaj, PhrygIonian/NaBal, DorIonian, LoloReachMaj, PentaMinLa/PentaBal, etc.
