Going Up - D, E, F, G, A, B, C#, D
Going Down - D, C, Bb, A, G, F, E, D
To play a minor scale on the recorder, you typically use the notes of the natural minor scale, which consists of the root note, a minor third, a perfect fifth, and the corresponding notes. For example, in A minor, you would play the notes A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. You can finger these notes similarly to how you would for a major scale, but be mindful of the specific fingerings for the minor third and any accidentals if you are playing a harmonic or melodic minor. Practice ascending and descending the scale to familiarize yourself with the sound and fingerings.
In a melodic minor scale, the sixth and seventh degrees are sharpened. In real cases - we have to use the word 'raised' rather than 'sharpened' since sometimes we need to raise the sixth degree of a major scale which is already flat. In Ab minor for example - we use naturals to raise the sixth and seventh degrees ascending since those notes (F and G), are already flatted due to the key signature.

The D minor scale for violin consists of the notes D, E, F, G, A, B♭, and C. In this scale, the B is flattened, making it a B♭. There are no sharps in the natural D minor scale, but if you were to play the harmonic or melodic variations, they may include raised notes, specifically C♯ in the harmonic form.
When ascending, the melodic minor scale has a raised 6th and 7th scale degree, but those two notes are lowered when descending.
When descending the melodic minor scale, you should play the natural minor scale, which means lowering the 6th and 7th notes compared to the ascending melodic minor scale.
The melodic minor scale differs from the harmonic minor scale in that the melodic minor scale raises the sixth and seventh notes when ascending, but reverts to the natural minor scale when descending. The harmonic minor scale raises only the seventh note.
To play the melodic minor scale ascending on a musical instrument, start with the root note and follow the pattern of whole and half steps specific to the melodic minor scale. This means raising the 6th and 7th notes of the natural minor scale by a half step when going up.
The harmonic minor scale differs from the melodic minor scale by only one note. In the harmonic minor scale, the seventh note is raised by a half step compared to the natural minor scale, while the melodic minor scale raises both the sixth and seventh notes when ascending but reverts to the natural minor scale when descending.
The melodic minor scale differs from the natural minor scale by raising the sixth and seventh notes when ascending, creating a more unique and exotic sound. This alteration gives the melodic minor scale a brighter and more uplifting quality compared to the natural minor scale, which has a more traditional and somber sound.
The characteristic feature of the ascending melodic minor scale that sets it apart from other minor scales is the raised 6th and 7th degrees of the scale.
The harmonic minor scale raises the seventh note of the natural minor scale by a half step, while the melodic minor scale raises both the sixth and seventh notes by a half step when ascending, and reverts back to the natural minor scale when descending.
Harmonic minor scale has a raised 7th in both ascending and descending scales. Melodic minor has raised 6th and 7th in ascending scale. It is similar to natural minor in descending scale.
The natural minor scale has a flat third, sixth, and seventh compared to the major scale. The melodic minor scale raises the sixth and seventh notes when ascending but uses the natural minor scale when descending. The harmonic minor scale raises the seventh note compared to the natural minor scale.
The melodic minor scale is different when ascending and descending to create a smoother and more pleasing sound. When ascending, the scale is altered to avoid a dissonant interval, while when descending, the natural minor scale is used to maintain a more traditional sound.
The melodic minor scale is played differently when ascending and descending. When ascending, the scale is played with a raised 6th and 7th note, while when descending, the scale is played with a lowered 7th and 6th note.
