Line 59:
The ''[[Allegro de concierto]]'' by Spanish composer [[Enrique Granados]] is written in C-sharp major. Canadian composer and pianist [[Frank Mills]] originally wrote and performed his instrumental hit "[[Music Box Dancer]]" in C-sharp major; however, most modern piano editions have the piece written in [[C major]].
[[Louis Vierne]] used C-sharp major for the "Dona nobis pacem" of the Agnus Dei of his ''[[Messe solennelle (Vierne)|Messe solennelle]]'' in [[C-sharp minor]].
In [[Tuning system|tuning systems]] where the number of notes per octave is not a multiple of 12, notes such as C{{music|#}} and D{{music|b}} are not [[enharmonically equivalent]], nor are the corresponding key signatures. For example, the key of C-sharp major, with seven sharps, is equivalent to [[D-flat major]] in 12-tone equal temperament, but in [[19 equal temperament|19-tone equal temperament]], it is equivalent to [[D-double-flat major]] instead, with 12 flats. Therefore, C-sharp major with 7 sharps, which has been rarely used in the existing 12-tone temperament, may be absolutely necessary.
