The diatonic scale that is played mostly on the black keys is F# major (also known enharmonically as Gb Major). The scale that is played only on black keys is the five note F# pentatonic scale. (AKA Gb pentatonic scale).

What are minor and major keys?

Major keys tend to sound happier and minor keys tend to sound dark or sad. Major keys have different patterns than minor keys if you start on the first note of the scale and play up the scale. I like to use C major because on a piano, you can start on a C and play up the scale without using any black keys...meaning it has no sharps or flats in the key signature. If you play from C to C on the major scale then you will see that each step is either a half step or a whole step. No matter what note you start on, it will have that same pattern if it is a major key. Now go down two white keys on the piano to the A. If you start there and play up the scale to the next A without playing any black keys on the piano, you will be playing a A natural minor scale. Your notice that it is very similar to the C major scale. It has the same key signature but starts and ends on a different note. As you play up the scale, notice that each step will be either a half step or a whole step. Every natural minor scale has the same combination of half and whole steps no matter what note you start on. Also, A minor is the relative minor of C major because they have the same key signature. Try to think about a piano keyboard when thinking about music theory ideas. The great trumpet playing stated in his autobiography that everyone should learn the piano no matter what their primary instrument is.
