WHY do we need a separate article on every key? This makes no sense. —Wahoofive ([[User talk:Wahoofive|talk]]) 15:56, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

C-flat is important as the home key of the harp, as well as of course for purely theoretical concerns. Dmetric 19:22, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Graphic of keys arranged in circle of fifths needs altering to include 7-accidental keys.

[edit]

The graphic used in this article needs changing, although I cannot do this myself. It is a common type of diagram of the sort often found in music theory textbooks, showing the major and minor keys arranged in a circle, demonstrating how all the keys link into a circle when you move up or down from one tonic note to the other by perfect 4ths or 5ths. However, the diagram lacks the keys of A-sharp minor, C-sharp major, A-flat minor, and C-flat major.

However rare these keys may be in actual music, they should be included, because their key signatures are valid and recognized ones, and the keys do exist, and these keys are a valid part of music theory, especially in considering enharmonic equivalents of remote sharp or flat keys.

Table of contents in wrong place.

[edit]

The positioning of the table of contents in this article looks wrong, somehow, but I cannot quite figure out how to correct it. It seems to be in the middle of the passage describing related keys to C-flat major, but I'm not sure whether it would better come before or after this; I guess this would depend on whether the bits about related keys were considered part of the introductory summary (which, as far as I can tell from other articles, normally comes before the table of contents), or whether they should be a whole section of their own, which would then come after the table of contents.

Since I'm not sure how to correct it, I mention it here to bring it to the notice of someone who knows how to do it. M.J.E. 16:02, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
