“C is no longer the minor 3rd (of A), it is now the Root. D is no longer the Perfect 4th (of A), it is now the Major 2nd (of C), E is now the Major 3rd, G is now the Perfect 5th, and A is now the Major 6th. So the new set of notes is: Root, Major 2nd, Major 3rd, Perfect 5th, Major 6th; or: R, M2, M3, P5, M6 This is a completely different abstract collection of notes than the A minor pentatonic scale — even though it consists of the same 5 tones — because it is now a completely different set of intervals.”
