| has gloss | eng: The Hypolydian mode, literally meaning below Lydian, is a musical mode or diatonic scale of ancient Greece that was based upon the Lydian tetrachord: descending (the way Ptolemy and Boethius described it), a series of falling intervals of a semitone followed by two whole tones. The rising scale for the octave is a single tone followed by two conjoint Lydian tetrachords. This is the same as playing all the white notes of a piano from C to C: C | D E F G | (G) A B C (ascending, in the modern reckoning). Confusingly, this scale in medieval and modern music theory came to be known as the Ionian mode. |
