Best Answer

A major key sounds more bright and cheerful than a dark, evil minor key signature. There are 12 major key signatures (C, F, Bb, Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, B, E, A, D, and G). To identify whether a piece is minor, look at the key signature. If the name of the key signature is the name of the last note, then you are in a major key signature. If it is not, chances are you are in a minor key signature.
