In your comment here, it seems you're conflating "note" and "chord": The individual note "A" is a perfect fifth above "D" (that is, the fifth note in the D major and minor scales); The "V chord" relative to the keys of D major and minor is A7. | |
| Jul 20, 2021 at 18:33 | comment | added | Sebastian Nielsen | Sorry, I see I didn't clarify my question well enough. What I am asking is: Given that I know the V chord of Dm is an A note. How do I know how I am supposed to play that A? E.g. is it an Am, A, Am-diminsihed, A-augmented, etc. I presume it depends on the scale; hence why I was asking about which scale to view it in terms of ... if that makes sense. | |
