G Whole Tone Scale — Soprano Ukulele
The G Whole Tone pattern on GCEA strings — see it, hear it, drill it.
The G Whole Tone scale has 6 notes per octave and belongs to the symmetric family. Here it is mapped onto the Soprano Ukulele's GCEA strings, position by position, with the root highlighted so the pattern anchors to G wherever you play it.
Weightless and dreamlike — six equal whole steps with no leading tone, so nothing pulls anywhere. Blurry, floating, and faintly unsettling, like a dream sequence.
Heard in: Impressionist piano (Debussy's "Voiles"), Thelonious Monk's runs, dream-sequence film cues, and the augmented and 7#5 chords it fits in jazz.
Reentrant tuning means the top string of the chart is not the lowest note — the maps below follow the Soprano Ukulele as it actually sounds, not a borrowed guitar chart.
Play each position slowly against the audio until the shape and the sound lock together, then take it to the progressions in G to use it over real changes.
