Hi Bob,
<< You don't mention minor keys, but I assume when you say C
Major, you mean no sharps or flats, which would include A minor. Do you have
any figures on the proportion of pieces that are in the relative minors of
the
key signatures you listed? Just curious if the proportion remains uniform as
you go around the circle. >>
I haven't the figures for the minor keys, but it appears they also are
treated approximately with the same degree of usage. I have simply not had
the time to do the minor research, yet. Hopefully, others with some interest
can collate this info. Thanks for the note.
Ed
