Question m not a musician so please answer my question in very simple
words.I m a student of traditional chinese medicine
and I guess it should be a combination of pentatonic and 12 step
scale in traditional chinese music which end up in famous 60 cell cycle
.Can you please give me notes (frequencies,octaves )of 60 elements
of this cycle or it might be just 12 repetition of pentatonic on
different octaves ,but again it would be very handy to have
notes/freq of each of these sound
thank you very much

Answer Hi, the pentatonic scale is made up of 5 notes.
In the key of C, this would be C,D,E,G,A.
(There are 12 keys in music, namely C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#,G,G#,A,Bb,B)
