'''F-flat major''' (or the '''key of F-flat''') is a [[theoretical key]] based on [[F♭ (musical note)|F{{music|flat}}]], consisting of the pitches F{{music|b}}, [[G♭ (musical note)|G{{music|b}}]], [[A♭ (musical note)|A{{music|b}}]], [[B-double flat|B]]{{music|bb}}, [[C♭ (musical note)|C{{music|b}}]], [[D♭ (musical note)|D{{music|b}}]], and [[E♭ (musical note)|E{{music|b}}]] Its [[key signature]] has six [[Flat (music)|flats]] and one double flat.<ref>{{cite book|title=The Road to Music|author=Nicolas Slonimsky|pages=16|location=New York|date=1960|publisher=Dodd, Mead, & Co.}}</ref>
The F-flat major scale is:
:<score vorbis="1" lang="lilypond"> {
\override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f
\relative c' {
\clef treble \key fes \major \time 7/4 fes4 ges aes beses ces des ees fes ees des ces beses aes ges fes2
} }
</score>
Its [[relative key|relative minor]] is [[D-flat minor]], usually replaced by [[C-sharp minor]] (see reason below) and its [[parallel key|parallel minor]] is F-flat minor, usually replaced by [[E minor]], since F-flat minor's four double-flats make it generally impractical to use. Because of that, it is usually enharmonic to [[E major]] with 4 sharps.
== Music in F-flat major ==
Although F-flat major is usually notated as its [[enharmonic equivalent]] of [[E major]], because E major has four [[Sharp (music)|sharps]] only as opposed to F-flat major's eight flats (including the B{{music|bb}}), part of [[Richard Strauss]]' ''[[Metamorphosen]]'' uses F-flat major, which one commentator has called "a bitter enharmonic parody" of the earlier manifestations of [[E major]] in the piece.<ref>{{cite book|title=Richard Strauss: New Perspectives on the Composer and His Work|author=Bryan Randolph Gilliam|pages=237|date=1998|publisher=Duke University Press|isbn=0-8223-2114-9}}</ref>
[[Ludwig van Beethoven|Beethoven]] also used F-flat major in his [[Piano Sonata No. 31 (Beethoven)|Piano Sonata No. 31]], Op. 110. In the first movement's [[Exposition (music)|exposition]], the transitional passage between the first and second [[Subject (music)|subjects]] consists of [[Arpeggio|arpeggiated]] [[Figure (music)|figuration]] beginning in [[A-flat major]] and [[Modulation (music)|modulating]] to the [[Dominant (music)|dominant]] key of [[E-flat major]]. In the [[Recapitulation (music)|recapitulation]], the key for this passage is changed to bring the second subject back in A-flat major: the transitional passage appears in a key that would theoretically be F-flat major, but which is notated in E major, presumably because Beethoven judged this easier to read – this key being a major third below the key of the earlier appearance of this passage. Likewise, the second movement (in A-flat major) of Beethoven's [[Piano Sonata No. 8 (Beethoven)|Piano Sonata No. 8]] (Pathétique) contains six measures of what would theoretically be F-flat major, but notated as E major (keeping the 4-flat key signature of the movement, so every note in the passage has an accidental).
Another example of F-flat major being notated as E major can be found in the ''Adagio'' of [[Joseph Haydn|Haydn]]'s [[List of piano trios by Joseph Haydn|Trio No. 27 in A-flat major]]. The Finale of [[Anton Bruckner|Bruckner]]'s [[Symphony No. 4 (Bruckner)|Symphony No. 4]] employs enharmonic E for F-flat, but its [[Coda (music)|coda]] employs F-flat directly, with a [[phrygian cadence]] through F-flat onto the tonic.<ref>{{cite web|author=Donald Betts|date=2005|url=http://innig.net./music/betts-innervoice/|work=The Inner Voice|title=Beethoven’s Piano Sonata Opus 110}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|title=Elements of Sonata Theory: Norms, Types, and Deformations in the Late-Eighteenth-Century Sonata|author=James Arnold Hepokoski and Warren Darcy|pages=326|date=2006|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=0-19-514640-9}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|title=Bruckner's Symphonies: Analysis, Reception and Cultural Politics|author=Julian Horton|pages=127|date=2004|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=0-521-82354-4}}</ref>
An example of F-flat major being used directly is in [[Victor Ewald]]'s Quintet No. 4 in A-flat major (Op. 8), where the entirety of the third movement is notated in this key.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.enspub.com/pages/sku93503.htm |title=Ewald: Quintet No 4 in Ab, op 8 |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |website=Ensemble Publications |publisher=Ensemble Publications |access-date=1 June 2016}}</ref>
The climax that occurs in the middle of [[Samuel Barber]]'s ''[[Adagio for Strings]]'' resolves to F-flat major.
