Learn how to use the circle of fifths to work out all the major keys, all the minor keys and all their key signatures. Useful for understanding keys and key signatures, intervals, and transposition. The circle of fifths conerns the relationship between the 12 notes of the chromatic scale, their corresponding key signatures, and the associated major and minor keys. Looking at the circle - the outer section shows the actual key signatures and accidentals, the middle circle represents the corresponding major keys and the inner circle represents the corresponding minor keys. The reason it’s called the circle of fifths is because of the interval relationships between each key signature. Each key, or accidental is a fifth up from the previous. This video shows how logical it all is. The circle of fifths is an essential tool in music theory, and you’ll be surprised how often it comes in handy. With the massive amounts of information that musicians need to access on a regular basis, we can tell you that the circle of fifths will make your life a lot easier.\n
