A bit of trivia that some of you might or might not know:
Anceint Greek theorists called our Ionian mode "Lydian".
Their diatonic scales counted *downward* by the same intervals ours
uses upward; so our Phrygian was their root-mode, so to speak; they
called it Dorian. It was indeed
_ _^_ _ _^ ....starting from the top.
D to D, what we call Dorian, was Phrygian...
C to C, Lydian
B to B, Mixolydian
A to A, Hypodorian
G to G, Hypophrygian
F to F, Hypolydian.
Crazy.
