Unprintables
01-June-2007: Some of the most unprintable characters are the unicodes for sharps/flats: they have been reverted to '#'/'b' several times over the past year in other music-key articles. For more precise sharp/flat symbols, the superscripted pound/bee characters could be used (see below:
- I don't know where to make this comment so I'll leave it below yours, Wikid77: most key signature-related articles such as this one seem to only show classical music examples, when there are examples in other genres as well. For instance, the dance-pop version by Cascada of the Rascal Flatts' song "What hurts the most" is in F# minor, as well as High School Musical 2's "Humuhumunukunukuapua'a" which then modulates to G minor --Fandelasketchup (talk) 14:30, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
Symbols for sharps/flats
01-June-2007: Over the past 2 years, the unprintable sharp/flat unicodes have been reverted in articles to use simple # / b; however, superscripted codes seem more accurate and universal. For more precise coding, that shows on most PC screens, use superscripts:
- For flats (b), use
"<sup>b</sup>"
- For sharp (#), use
"<sup>#</sup>"
Double-sharp, use "<sup>##</sup>"
Double-flats, use "<sup>bb</sup>"
- For flats (b), use
Results: F#, C#, Bb, Eb, C##, Gbb. In general, the simple "# / b" characters are close enough, such as F# or Bb, especially considering the tedious coding of superscript expressions. However, because Wiki articles feed other sources, worldwide, avoid unicodes for sharp/flat or use words (such as:
The X looks like a better symbol for "double sharp." Cbsteffen

Do Not Erase Acceptable Examples
I don't want any of you taking too many songs off these lists. Leave the ones that belong there. Cbsteffen
I don't think that it's necessary to mention Bach's 2 preludes and fugues in F-sharp minor in the list of piano compositions, because the same could be said for every key. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.97.244.24 (talk) 07:45, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
"common in death metal"
Aside from the sketchiness of suggesting that death metal frequently is in A major, the article contains neither example nor citation. 157.178.2.1 (talk) 17:11, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Lack of symphonies in F# minor
Is there a musical / theory-based reasoning for this, or is it completely arbitrary? Churkirby (talk) 00:15, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Classical Music: Mahler Adagio
The tenth and final symphony of Gustav Mahler is in F# major (though it sometimes borders on atonality). The first movement, an Adagio, does open in that key, but it soon gravitates towards minor, and most of it is probably in F# minor. 192.121.232.253 (talk) 13:03, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
