Subj: [kl] KEYS
Date: Mon, 8 Nov 1999 14:32:37 -0500

Dear friends,
I just joined you on this list. If this is too far Off Topic, please
excuse me.
On the church list I read everyday they were talking about the
difference keys make in music. Some felt that some songs sound good in
one key but not others. Others could not tell the difference. One person
said that the keys had identifiable qualities that were one used in
selecting the key a piece should be written in. For example if you were
writing a pastoral piece a certain key would be chosen. However they did
not know just what qualities each key had. D-flat was thought to be a
Noble key? If you have time and inclination I would be interested in a
opinion from musicians.
