“Mirror” Harmony:SCALES:

Here we will take a brief look at the major scale modes and their “Mirror” effect via inversion. When we employ contrary motion we get the same intervals descending as we do ascending. So for example if the Lydian scale ascends  T T T S the scale below descends exactly the same with TTTS.

Other way around:

The Dorian mode being “Palindromic” produces the same scale either way.

Scale extension: 13 note scale

AUDIO of SCALE extension:

Polytonality and Polymodality Mirror Harmony with Scale:

Each mode of the major scale has it’s mirror [modal] opposite because the whole diatonic scale system can be symmetrically inverted.

Inverted Symmetrical Reflection. The intervals are the same both in harmonisation and contrary motion.

OR:

Lydian-Locrian=Mirror pair

Ionian-Phrygian=Mirror Pair

Mixolydian-Aeolian=Mirror pair

Dorian-Dorian=Palindromic [Produces the same scale either way].

Major scale mirrors

Polymodality modal mirrors

Hungarian Minor Polytonal mirrors

Polytonality exotic scales

Polymodality Modes in contrary motion

NEGATIVE HARMONY

Through inversion we find the opposite of the C Major Scale

Here we see the opposites in the chords with Minor Reflecting Major and Major reflecting Minor. Diminished stays the same though.
