Best Answer

With music notes, spelling matters, and changes depending on the key. For example, in the key of G-flat major, it uses a C-flat rather than a B-natural because the C and B are both flat in the key signature. If a B-natural was used, the scale would go Gb Ab Bb B Db Eb F Gb, which is musical misspelling. It's like the words "to," "too," and "two." They all sound the same, but when written, they have different meanings.
