D♯ Major
D♯ · E♯ · F♯♯ · G♯ · A♯ · B♯ · C♯♯
The major scale is the reference point all other scales are described against, and D♯ Major supplies the seven notes that define the key of D♯. Bright, resolved, and endlessly familiar, it underpins the overwhelming majority of Western melody, from folk songs to pop choruses. Learn this one properly and every mode becomes a small variation on it.
