What is the Bebop Dominant scale?
The bebop dominant scale is Mixolydian with an added major seventh, giving eight notes. The extra note means chord tones land on the strong beats when the scale is played in straight eighths, which is exactly what the bebop line depends on.
Fis Bebop Dominant 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.
