I always carry a pocket knife, and I hate changing tires. Ergo I prefer sharps to flats.

Why have flats and sharps at all? Why not give each half-note its own letter designation? For example, Ab would be B and B would be C and Bb would be D. Perhaps there is a good reason for not giving half notes a separate name and I’m merely showing my notation illiteracy by asking. |

I like whatever makes the music easier to read.
Being that 99% of what I read is jazz music, you can bet my sight reading is a heck of a lot better in "flat" keys! Please no F# major tunes, please! |

Flats. If I hit a note flat, I can bend it up and it sounds cool. If I hit it sharp I'm stuck.

I don't understand the question. Aren't sharps and flats exactly the same thing?
I admit that despite having a basic understanding of music theory, I still don't fully grasp why there are sharps and flats when say, an F sharp and a G flat stand for the same exact note. I know it has to do with keys and the circle of fifths, but I don't really get it.

That begs the question - in the real world where we play our pianos and guitars aren't they the same note? Can someone help me understand? Thanks: Uncle R. |
