What is the best way to identify correctly if a song is in C major scale or A minor scale, because notes are all the same?
In: Other
They have the same notes but their position is different. So, the first note, which we call the root, changes. This root note is like “home” which is to say that we want to resolve to.
Furthermore, a scale allows us to build the chords and completely different chords are constructed between the two keys.
This gives a happy or upbeat feel to major keys and a sad or solemn feel to minor keys.
