A ''haṅier'' (literally 'stepping') consists of a nine-note scale plus which subsets to emphasize, either a set of two ''buri'' (pentachords or hexachords) or a ''pezeom'', a pentatonic subset where 1\24 is not used as a step. Different styles encourage different subset use. | A ''haṅier'' (literally 'stepping') consists of a nine-note scale plus which subsets to emphasize, either a set of two ''buri'' (pentachords or hexachords) or a ''pezeom'', a pentatonic subset where 1\24 is not used as a step.

The two ''buri''s may be conjunct (consecutive, spanning a minor seventh) or disjunct (separated by a major second). | |||
The top note of a ''buri'' functions similarly to the ''ghammaz'' in Arabic ''ajnas''. | The top note of a ''buri'' functions similarly to the ''ghammaz'' in Arabic ''ajnas''. | ||
