In the traditional Western scale, an H is not a part of the musical alphabet - however, in some countries, such as Russia, the note name H is used to represent what the Western world would term as B natural.
This is especially prevalent in the works of Dmitri Shostakovich, who used a DSCH cypher - his own signature - within his works - consisting of a D, E flat, C, and B natural. This is prevalent in such works of his as the String Quartet No. 8 in D minor.
