F-sharp minor is sometimes used as the parallel minor of G-flat major, especially since G-flat major's real parallel minor, G-flat minor, would have nine flats including two double-flats. For example, in the middle section of his seventh Humoresque in G-flat major , Antonín Dvořák switches from G-flat major to F-sharp minor for the middle ...
The second movement begins in the key of F-sharp major which was for Scriabin "a ‘bright blue’ mystic key". [1] It is in the form of theme and variations. The orchestra introduces the theme. The piano enters with the first variation, accompanying the orchestra's theme with arpeggios. The second variation is faster, marked allegro scherzando.
In the key of C major, these would be: D minor, E minor, F major, G major, A minor, and C minor.

Although E-sharp minor is usually notated as F minor, it could be used on a local level, such as bars 17 to 22 in Johann Sebastian Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1, Prelude and Fugue No. 3 in C-sharp major. (E-sharp minor is the mediant minor key of C-sharp major.) The scale-degree chords of E-sharp minor are: Tonic – E-sharp minor

The progression is also used entirely with minor chords[i-v-vii-iv (g#, d#, f#, c#)] in the middle section of Chopin's etude op. 10 no. 12. However, using the same chord type (major or minor) on all four chords causes it to feel more like a sequence of descending fourths than a bona fide chord progression.
In music theory, the key of a piece is the group of pitches, or scale, that forms the basis of a musical composition in Western classical music, art music, and pop music. Tonality (from "Tonic") or key: Music which uses the notes of a particular scale is said to be "in the key of" that scale or in the tonality of that scale. [1]
F Sharp notes. 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.
