> What tunes do you play in A major?

A lot of folk music is in A. (And the person who writes all the music for
one of my bands is preternaturally fond of writing in A.)

I find that sight-reading (pre-transposed) jigs and reels on bass and BBb
contrabass clarinet has done wonders for the fluidity of my playing in 4-5
sharps. (concert D/A, E/B on Bb instruments) :-)
