CV Alkan Allegro Barbaro Op35 No5 (F Lydian)

(If that doesn't get the bonus points, you had the wrong piece in mind to start with)

Since we are a la mode, Phrygian



Yay! Bonus points to you!

Ummm... there isn't really anything written with a key signature of Cb major... parts of some pieces are but I can't recall any that use this as the primary key. I looked for one pretty much for an hour and couldn't find anything... so yeah...

Is there a specific piece you have in mind? I can't seem to find any.

C flat? or do you just simply mean B natural?

No enharmonics allowed. It means C-flat. Anyway, you're a post behind. We're supposed to be naming pieces using the Tcherepnin scale but not by Tcherepnin.  :)

Nope.

Does this mean that pieces using the Tcherepnin scale but not by Tcherepnin don't exist, or just that there are several possibilities and you are considering all of them?

It means I simply don't know the answer. I would assume there were such pieces, I just don't know them.
