What is the Bebop Major scale?
The bebop major scale is the major scale with an added raised fifth, giving eight notes. Like the other bebop scales, the added passing tone keeps chord tones on the beat so that long running lines stay locked to the harmony.
Ais Bebop Major is a scale, not a key. It has no key signature of its own — music that uses it is normally written in the key signature of its parent scale, with any extra accidentals added as they occur.
