Oct 11, 2017 at 14:51 comment added mkorman That's all there is to it. It's worth explaining why it's like this. Using notes from the scale "sounds better" to our ears. If we were to create chords with notes that don't belong to the diatonic scale it would sound dissonant. At least to the Western musical tradition.

Oct 11, 2017 at 11:15 comment added user19146 Correct - that's all there is to it. The minor scale is a bit more complicated because there are two choices for the 6th and 7th notes, depending on whether you use the harmonic minor or melodic minor. In real music as compared with text-book exercises, both are often used in the same piece, so the "key of A minor" contains all the notes A B C D E F F# G G# A.
