    A medieval mode, also known as a Gregorian mode, is a type of scale or musical configuration that was used in European music from the Early Middle Ages until the late Renaissance. These modes are the precursors to the major and minor scales in Western music. The eight medieval modes include Dorian, Hypodorian, Phrygian, Hypophrygian, Lydian, Hypolydian, Mixolydian, and Hypomixolydian. Each mode has a unique series of whole and half steps, providing a distinctive tonal structure.
