Adonai malakh mode

In music, the Adonai malakh scale is a musical mode used in Jewish music. "Adonai malakh" ("God is King"), a line from Psalm 93, is set using the Adonai malakh scale at the close of the introduction to the Kabalat Shabat (Friday evening synagogue service). It may be constructed by lowering the submediant of the mixolydian mode. It adds flats as it goes higher, and its pitch set is similar to the Persian Dastgāh-e Māhur and Russian Obikhod scale.
