![]() Since most people start to learn in major keys, we will use examples in major keys only. They are relatives because they share the same key signature. These similarities are known as relatives. Sharps and flats at the beginning of a piece can also indicate which key the piece is written in although there are other elements of the piece that also determine this because major and minor keys can share the same key signature, for example C major and A minor share the same key signature, that is, no sharps or flats, also G major and E minor share the same key signature of one sharp, (F Sharp). Sharps and flats can be written in various bars throughout the piece and these are known as accidentals and will last for the bars duration only. If you don.t see any sharps or flats at the beginning of the piece then this is normally referred to as open key or C major. This will tell you if sharps and flats will be played in the piece or if no sharps and flats will be played. A key signature will appear at the beginning of a piece of sheet music. ![]()
