An important class of scales are MOS scales (MOS "Moment of symmetry"). These were invented by Erv Wilson. His original paper can be found here [[Moments | An important class of scales are MOS scales (MOS "Moment of symmetry"). These were invented by Erv Wilson.

An MOS scale is a scale whose basic steps come in 2 different sizes. This is an interesting property because two basic scales of classical music theory have it: the diatonic scale (whole tone and semitone) and the pentatonic scale (minor third and whole tone). | An MOS scale is a scale whose basic steps come in 2 different sizes.
