[musictlk] The Circle of Fifths

Wed Jul 9 00:31:50 UTC 2014

Hello,
Yes!
fcgdaeb is sharps order (If you play those in order going up, you will 
find they are all a 5th a part.
BEADGCF is the order of flats. If you play them in order up you will 
find they are all a 5th apart!
thanks,

Brandon Keith Biggs
