How it is built
- Seven notes: whole, whole, half, whole, whole, whole, half. The half steps fall between D♯–E and A♯–B.
- A♯ is the leading tone. It sits a half step below B and pulls hard toward it, which is why the V chord resolves home.
- Same notes as G♯ minor. Start on G♯ and the mood flips without changing a single pitch.
