Like the major scale, it is possible to derive seven different modes from each of the three types of minor scales. Modes derived from the natural minor will be identical to those derived from it’s relative major. However, harmonic and ascending melodic minor scales produce different sets of modes because of their raised 7th and 6th degrees. The example below shows the seven modes derived from a C harmonic minor scale. Notice how they work over the scale tone chords shown above each mode.
