A major
Also see: A minor, or A sharp minor. A major (or the key of A) is a major scale based on A, with the pitches A, B, C-sharp, D, E, F-sharpG-sharp, and A. Its key signature has three sharps (see below: Scales and keys).Its relative minor is F-sharp minor and its parallel minor is A minor. A-major key is the only key where a Neapolitan sixth chord on requires both a flat & a natural accidental.Although not as rare in the symphonic literature as sharper keys, examples of symphonies in A major are not as numerous as for D major or G major. Beethoven's Symphony No. 7Bruckner's Symphony No. 6 and Mendelssohn's Symphony No. 4 comprise a nearly complete list of symphonies in this key in the Romantic era. Mozart's Clarinet Concerto and Clarinet Quintet are both in A major.
