A-flat minor, its enharmonic, has seven flats, whereas G-sharp minor only has five sharps; thus G-sharp minor is sometimes used as the parallel minor for A-flat major. (The same enharmonic situation occurs with the keys of D-flat major and C-sharp minor, and in some cases, with the keys of G-flat major and F-sharp minor).
G♯ (G-sharp) or sol dièse is the ninth semitone of the solfège.In the German pitch nomenclature, it is known as gis. [1]It lies a chromatic semitone above G and a diatonic semitone below A, thus being enharmonic to la bémol or A ♭ (A-flat).
the ascending melodic minor scale or jazz minor scale (also known as the Ionian ♭ 3 or Dorian ♮ 7): this form of the scale is also the 5th mode of the acoustic scale. the descending melodic minor scale: this form is identical to the natural minor scale . The ascending and descending forms of the A melodic minor scale are shown below:
Four of the scale notes – the tonic (C in the example), subdominant (F), dominant (G), and octave (C′) – are all fixed: They are nearly exactly the same relative pitches in all three categories of ancient Greek scales (enharmonic, chromatic, and diatonic), [4] and in ancient Greek music, the fixed tones relative pitches were very nearly the same as the corresponding notes in the modern ...

More often, pieces in a minor mode that have A-flat's pitch as tonic are notated in the enharmonic key, G-sharp minor, because that key has just five sharps as opposed to the seven flats of A-flat minor. In some scores, the A-flat minor key signature in the bass clef is written with the flat for the F on the second line from the top. [nb 1]
A double natural is a symbol that has two naturals (♮♮). It may be used to cancel a double flat or double sharp, but in modern notation a single natural sign (♮) is acceptable. [3] The same principle can be applied when canceling a triple sign (triple flat / triple sharp) or beyond. [4] [5]
