Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in 7 Modes

Here’s “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star“ in C Ionian (aka Major Scale) C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C C Dorian C, D, Eb, F, G, A, Bb, C C Phrygian C, Db, Eb, F, G, Ab, Bb, C C Lydian C, D, E, F#, G, A, B, C C Mixolydian C, D, E, F, G, A, Bb, C C Aeolian (aka Natural Minor) C, D, Eb, F, G, Ab, Bb, C C Locrian C, Db, Eb, F, Gb, Ab, Bb, C “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star“ is originally in C Major (Ionian Mode) so that’s the one that it’ll sound “normal“ - the rest of ’em are gonna sound more (Locrian) or less (Mixolydian) weird. One thing to note is that because the melody for this song doesn’t contain the 7th degree the melody isn’t changed from C Major to C Mixolydian but the harmony is. In other words; the melody is the same, but the chords are different. Another thing to note is that my choices for the harmony (chords) are just mine, not the only way
