For orchestration of piano music, some theorists recommend transposing the music to F major or G major. If F-sharp major must absolutely be used, one should take care that B♭ wind instruments be notated in A-flat major, rather than G-sharp major (or E♮/B♮ instruments used instead, giving a transposed key of D major/G major).
The Symphony in F-sharp, Op. 40, is the only symphony by 20th-century Austrian composer Erich Wolfgang Korngold, although as a teenager in 1912 he had written a Sinfonietta, his Op. 5. Using a theme from the 1939 film The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex, the symphony was completed in 1952 and dedicated to the memory of American president ...
The Barcarolle in F-sharp major, Op. 60, is a piece for solo piano by Frédéric Chopin, composed between autumn of 1845 and summer 1846, three years before his death. [1] Based on the barcarolle rhythm and mood, it features a sweepingly romantic and slightly wistful tone. Many of the technical figures for the right hand are thirds and sixths ...
The Piano Sonata No. 24 in F ♯ major, Op. 78, nicknamed " à Thérèse " (because it was written for Countess Thérèse von Brunswick) was written by Ludwig van Beethoven in 1809. It consists of two movements: Adagio cantabile — Allegro ma non troppo. Allegro vivace.
F♯ (musical note) F♯ ( F-sharp; also known as fa dièse or fi) is the seventh semitone of the solfège . It lies a chromatic semitone above F and a diatonic semitone below G, thus being enharmonic to sol bémol or G ♭ (G-flat) in 12 equal temperament. However, in other temperaments, such as quarter-comma meantone, it is not the same as G ♭.
The opening bars of No. 1 in F major. The Nocturnes, Op. 15 are a set of three nocturnes for solo piano written by Frédéric Chopin between 1830 and 1833. The work was published in January 1834, and was dedicated to Ferdinand Hiller. [ 1] These nocturnes display a more personal approach to the nocturne form than that of the earlier Opus 9.
The list of symphonies in F-sharp major includes: Symphony in F-sharp major, Op. 40 by Erich Wolfgang Korngold, (1951-2) Symphony No. 10 by Gustav Mahler [1] (sketched between 1910-1, completed by Deryck Cooke and published in 1967) Turangalîla-Symphonie by Olivier Messiaen [2] (1946-8)
Some keys (such as C ♯ major with seven sharps) may be written as an enharmonically equivalent key (D ♭ major with five flats in this case). In rare cases, the sharp keys may be extended further, G ♯ → D ♯ → A ♯ → E ♯ → B ♯ → F → C, requiring double sharps in the key signature: F, C, G, D, A, E, B.
