COMMENTS

More precisely, the key-numbers of the pitches of a minor scale on a standard chromatic keyboard, with root = 0 and flat seventh.

Also key-numbers of the pitches of an Aeolian mode scale on a standard chromatic keyboard, with root = 0. An Aeolian mode scale can, for example, be played on consecutive white keys of a standard keyboard, starting on the root tone A.
