Part of the countertenor melody is based on a Locrian F sharp scale. Dorian, Aeolian, Locrian, melodic minor, and harmonic minor scales are some of the minor scales widely used in today's music. The Aeolian and Locrian modes, both close to the minor scale, are associated with dark sections of the piece.
