Irta Japanese music consists of various modes and melodic tropes called ''makān'' and ''āwāji''. Japanese ''makān''s are mostly pentatonic where certain notes are played with vibrato by default. For instance ''makān-i-Hirajōshi'' consists of the scale C D Eb G Ab with vibratos on the notes Eb and Ab. In addition there are non-octave ''makān''s like the "pentatonic" scale C D Eb G Ab Bb with vibratos on Eb and Bb. | Irta Japanese music consists of various modes and melodic tropes called ''makān'' and ''āwāji''.
