We will build a simple TOOL to look up all 7 MODES in all 12 KEYS. Choose a church mode on the lower disc and a keynote on the upper disc and point them together. Then all the keys of the particularly scale are pointed out. To build the Circle of Church Modes we use a print, a scissor, two shirt buttons, some sewing thread and a needle. The print containing the two circles (PDF): newjazz.dk/musik/CircleOfChurchModes/CircleOfChurchModes.pdf The circle of church modes will award you with a great fundamental understanding of the very nature of the church modes. Because in a very clear and simple manner the tool shows you how the 7 modes are connected and related. The 7 church modes are actually rotations of each other! In music theory we use the expression that the modes are in different degrees of each other. The seven modes: Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian and Locrian.
