In music notation, having 4 flats in the key signature indicates that the piece is in the key of E-flat major. The flats are placed on specific lines or spaces of the staff, representing the notes that are consistently lowered by a half step throughout the piece. In the case of E-flat major, the flats are B-flat, E-flat, A-flat, and D-flat. This key signature simplifies the notation by indicating which notes are flat without having to notate them individually throughout the score.
Bb is not necessarily an easier key, however it only has 2 flats in its key signature, whereas Ab has 4. So if you're composing for an instrument, the key of Ab would be better.
Bbb Eb Ab Db Gb Cb Fb. Far from being strictly theoretical, the key F flat major becomes important when a composition in Cb major modulates to the Subdominant, the second most common modulation. The key-change may be indicated either through accidentals (double-flats placed beside notes), or through a change of key signature. While some composers might write a sonata in the key of Cb major, they might wish their second movement to be in the Subdominant key. They have the option of notating with a key signature of 8 flats (which shows the relation to the first movement), or using it's enharmonic equivalent, E major (key signature: 4 sharps), to simplify reading.
Time signature is 4/4- key signature can be adapted to your needs, obviously. I can't say what it is on the recording, but my spur of the moment piano noodling says, to try F.
4/4
For the sharp major keys you go up one half step from the last sharp. For the Flat major keys you go one flat back from the last flat. To find the realative minor you start at the top of any major scale and go down 3 notes in that scale always counting the top note as 1. CDEFGABC Realative Minor-- CBA--A minor
4 sharps.
A flat major and its relative minor are key signatures with four flats.
The easiest way is to consult a circle of fifths. As a band director, I require my students to keep one with them in their folder. The second simple method is this. C has 0 flats, memorize that. Again, memorize that F has 1 flat. Finally. After that, the name of the key signature will be the penultimate flat (that is the second to the last flat in the key signature.) As an example, if there are 4 flats in your key signature they are: Bb Eb Ab and Db. They will always be listed in that order. Ab is the penultimate, and thusly this would be the key of Ab.
The tip on finding the key signature for flats in major keys is by counting up 4 notes from the tonic note, that is the last flat, then count back down 4 scale notes, and that is the key. BTW - this tip doesn't work for the minor keys with flats.
4 Flats if im not wrong it is a flat,b flat,e flat and d flat you :)
4 sharps will be F#, C#, G# and D#. They mean the key of E major, or its relative key of C# minor.
3/4 is a time signature, not a key signature.

A key signature is the number of sharps or flats in a piece of music. For example C Major has no sharps G Major has 1 Sharp F Major has 1 Flat B flat Major has 2 Flats In a piece of music The key signature is put after the Clef (e.g. treble clef) and before the time signature (2/4)In musical notation, a key signature is a series of sharp or flat symbols placed on the staff, designating notes that are to be consistently played one semitone higher or lower than the equivalent natural notes unless otherwise altered with an accidental. Key signatures are generally written immediately after the clef at the beginning of a line of musical notation, although they can appear in other parts of a score, notably after a double bar. Key signatures are generally used in a score to avoid the complication of having sharp or flat symbols on every instance of certain notes. Each major and minor key has an associated key signature that sharpens or flattens the notes which are used in its scale. However, it is not uncommon for a piece to be written with a key signature that does not match its key, for example, in some Baroque pieces,[1] or in transcriptions of traditional modal folk tunes.[2]
D flat minor exists only in theory and not in practice, it's key signature would have six flats (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb Cb and Fb) and one double-flat (Bbb). It's notation can be expressed by the far simpler key of C-sharp minor - with only 4 sharps.
