A Minor

A · B · C · D · E · F · G

Also called the natural minor or Aeolian mode, A Minor flattens the third, sixth, and seventh of the major scale to produce the standard sad-sounding scale. It's the default choice for minor-key rock, pop, metal, and folk, and it shares its notes with the major scale a minor third above. Essential vocabulary alongside the major scale.
