What scale do they use in Chinese music?

Over the years many scales have fallen in and out of use. There are seven scales a musician will see very often and should know. The major scale is the most known and is comprised of 8 notes, Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti Do. All other scales are a variation of the major scale. The next scale is called the natural minor. It is a major scale that starts on La. (La Ti Do Re Me Fa Sol La) You can also get a natural minor scale by lowering the 3rd, 6th, and 7th notes of any major scale. The third scale is called the harmonic minor. You get this scale by sharping the seventh note in any natural minor scale. The fourth scale you should be aware of is called the melodic minor. You go up the scale sharping the 6th and 7th note but many classical musicians will insist on going back down the scale like a natural minor. The fifth is called the Mixolydian scale. This scale is popular in rock' n roll music. You get this scale by starting on the fifth note of any major scale. (Sol La Ti Do Re Mi Fa Sol) You can also get this scale by flatting the 7th note in any major scale. The sixth scale you should learn is called the pentatonic scale. You can get it by playing the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 6th notes of any major scale. (Do Re Mi Sol La) The final scale that shows up a lot in Western music is called the blues scale. You get it by playing: Do Mib Fa Solb Sol Tib Do.
