G♯ Minor Six Diminished

G♯ · A♯ · B · C♯ · D♯ · E · E♯ · F♯♯

Associated with Barry Harris's teaching, G♯ Minor Six Diminished is a minor scale with both the flat and natural sixth, so alternating notes spell out a minor sixth chord and a diminished seventh chord. That built-in alternation is the point: it generates smooth voice-led harmony almost automatically. A powerful concept, and a genuinely advanced one.
