Next, we take a whole step up to F, before taking a whole step to G, and a whole step to A before finishing on a half step up to our tonic note of Bb in the next highest octave. The step pattern for the Bb major scale begins on Bb, followed by a whole step up to C, followed by another whole step up to the note D, then a half step to Eb. However, Bb is more commonly referred to in musical notation as it contains just two flats (Bb and Eb), making it relatively simple to read and play.Ī#, on the other hand, has a key signature of 4 sharps and 3 double sharps, making it far more complex and thus not commonly used. Bb and A# are enharmonic equivalents, meaning they sound the same but are notated differently.
