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.
