Although most composers prefer to use the enharmonic equivalent D-flat major because it has just five flats as opposed to the seven sharps of C-sharp major, [[Johann Sebastian Bach]] actually chose C-sharp major for Prelude and Fugue No. 3 in both books of the ''[[Well-Tempered Clavier]]''. In [[Hungarian Rhapsodies|Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6]], [[Franz Liszt]] actually changes key from D-flat major to C-sharp major near the beginning of the piece. [[Maurice Ravel]] selected C-sharp major as the tonic key of ''Ondine'' from his piano suite ''[[Gaspard de la nuit]]''.
