C♯ Ionian Mode

The C♯ Ionian Mode has a Major quality due to its Major Third E♯. The Ionian Mode, like C♯ Ionian Mode, is one of seven diatonic modes originally formed using just the natural notes (think just the white keys on a piano) but starting on a particular note, C in the case of the Ionian Mode, which creates a unique sequence of intervals. This mode can then be transposed to any key such as C♯ Ionian Mode in this example. C♯ Ionian Mode is classified as a heptatonic scale as it has seven notes, C♯, D♯, E♯, F♯, G♯, A♯, B♯. The C♯ Ionian Mode is also known as a diatonic scale which conforms to specific rules. Due to its popularity the Ionian Mode later became known as the Major Scale. C♯ Ionian Mode is therefore identical to the C♯ Major Scale.
