C♯ Mixolydian is the most sharp-heavy of the Mixolydian modes. Built on the 5th degree of F♯ major, it shares those same six sharps but treats C♯ as home. This mode includes E♯ — which sounds the same as F on the keyboard but is spelled E♯ to maintain correct interval relationships. While C♯ Mixolydian appears less frequently than simpler keys, understanding it completes your knowledge of the mode across all twelve roots and deepens your grasp of enharmonic spelling.
