What is true of it
C♯ Phrygian is C♯, D, E, F♯, G♯, A and B, and back to C♯.
Its steps are H – W – W – W – H – W – W, where W is a whole step and H a half.
On the same tonic, C♯ natural minor differs from it by exactly one note.
Across the first twelve frets of the guitar its notes fall in 47 places, which is what makes a scale a shape rather than a list.
