D Mahur
Middle Eastern & Turkish Makams / Maqams
Çargâh pentachord + tetrachord; unlike Rast its 3rd and 7th are not koma-flat. Identical to Western major.
Makams use intervals smaller than a fret (komas, quarter tones) and are defined as much by their seyir (melodic path) as by their notes. Shown here is the nearest 12-tone, fretted approximation, so some makams land on the same notes.
Tap any dot to hear it.
