Re: Gis major key signature; Lily's key signature algorithm

This discrepancy is actually what led to my question. Why does LilyPond notate it one way, while this image shows another? (My research has shown at the image you provided was custom made in MuseScore.) Although G♯ major is enharmonic to A♭, there are still pieces that use these "theoretical"

Re: Gis major key signature; Lily's key signature algorithm

Hi Richard, Good question, and lots of good answers. Modern practice is to follow the order of the circle of fifths. But that was not always the case. So, indeed, depends on your historical context. Bach was writing in G sharp for the WTC, and it was most certainly not intended to be enharmonic

Add on: I remember, that the brass and reed instruments always wanted keys with minor signs. They have flaps to lower the tone a half step but not to raise it I argue that might be the reason for such "strange" keys from the perspective of other instrumentalists?
