According to Roger Kamien, quoted in Wikipedia:".....the "crucial difference is that in the minor scale there is only a half step between the second and third tones as compared to the major scales where the difference between third and fourth note and between the seventh and the eighth note is half."You can read more by following the link, below.
To determine what the seventh note (leading note) is in a minor scale, you need to determine which minor scale you are playing. The seventh note of a natural minor scale, you take the note which is a whole tone (2 notes) below your tonic (the note which is the name of your scale). Example: In A natural minor scale the leading note is G. The seventh note of a harmonic minor scale is a semitone (1 note) below your tonic note. Ex: In E harmonic minor scale, the leading note is D sharp. The seventh note of a melodic minor scale (ascending) will be a semitone below your tonic note, like your harmonic minor scale. Descending the melodic minor scale reverts to its natural state, therefore your seventh note will be a whole tone below your tonic.
The natural harmonic minor scale is a minor scale with a raised 7th note, while the melodic minor scale has both a raised 6th and 7th note when ascending. The two scales are related because the melodic minor scale is derived from the natural harmonic minor scale.
The melodic minor scale is played differently when ascending and descending. When ascending, the scale is played with a raised 6th and 7th note, while when descending, the scale is played with a lowered 7th and 6th note.
The melodic minor scale is played ascending with a raised 6th and 7th note, while it is played descending with a lowered 7th and 6th note.
The melodic minor scale differs from the harmonic minor scale in that the melodic minor scale raises the sixth and seventh notes when ascending, but reverts to the natural minor scale when descending. The harmonic minor scale raises only the seventh note.
The harmonic minor scale has a raised seventh note compared to the natural minor scale, while the melodic minor scale has both a raised sixth and seventh note when ascending, but reverts to the natural minor scale when descending.
The harmonic minor scale differs from the melodic minor scale by only one note. In the harmonic minor scale, the seventh note is raised by a half step compared to the natural minor scale, while the melodic minor scale raises both the sixth and seventh notes when ascending but reverts to the natural minor scale when descending.
The harmonic minor scale has a raised seventh note compared to the natural minor scale, while the melodic minor scale has both a raised sixth and seventh note when ascending, but reverts to the natural minor scale when descending.
The natural minor scale has a flat 3rd, 6th, and 7th note compared to the major scale, while the melodic minor scale has a raised 6th and 7th note when ascending, but the same as the natural minor scale when descending.
The natural minor scale has a flat 3rd, 6th, and 7th note compared to the major scale. The harmonic minor scale has a raised 7th note compared to the natural minor scale. The melodic minor scale has a raised 6th and 7th note when ascending, but uses the natural minor scale when descending.
