Hello Adrian,

I'm currently working on lesson 4 of "Swing Mastery" and I got a little confused by what you said regarding the construction of the Em6 arpeggio, in particular the C#. You explained that it is a natural 6th, coming from the E natural minor scale.

• First, how come you call it a natural 6th when it's actually sharp?

• Then, in the E natural minor scale, the 6th is a C, not C#. To my understanding, C# can be found in the E melodic minor scale or E major scale, but not E natural minor, right? So could you please explain how the C# is coming from the E natural minor scale?

There is probably something obvious that I'm missing here. I would really appreciate if you could help me understand how this works.

Thank you!
