About the D bebop major scale
The bebop major scale adds a chromatic passing tone (b6) between the 5th and 6th degrees of the major scale. This eight-note scale keeps chord tones on the beat during eighth-note lines, a crucial concept in jazz. It is used over major 7th chords in bebop and mainstream jazz.
