About the Gb harmonic minor scale

The harmonic minor scale raises the 7th degree of the natural minor scale, creating a leading tone that pulls strongly toward the tonic. This produces the characteristic augmented second interval between the 6th and 7th degrees, giving it a dramatic, Middle Eastern, or classical sound. It is essential for minor key harmony.
