Question

What is the quality of the five chord in harmonic minor?

Answer 1

Answer:

The A harmonic minor chord V is the E major chord, and contains the notes E, G#, and B. This dominant chord's root / starting note is the 5th note (or scale degree) of the A harmonic minor scale. The roman numeral for number 5 is 'V' and is used to indicate this is the 5th triad chord in the scale.
