The New Grove Dictionary (2001) defines an "enharmonic keyboard" as "a keyboard with more than 12 keys and sounding more than 12 different pitches in the octave", [5] however the article does not specify the origin of the term. Rasch (2002) suggested applying the term "enharmonic keyboard" more precisely, to keyboards with 29–31 keys per octave.
The Keyboard Variations No. 5 in C major, Hob. XVII/5, is a set of Keyboard variations written by Joseph Haydn in 1790 [ 1 ] and published by Artaria & Co. on February 9, 1791. [ 2 ]
In the key of C major, these would be: D minor, E minor, F major, G major, A minor, and C minor. Despite being three sharps or flats away from the original key in the circle of fifths, parallel keys are also considered as closely related keys as the tonal center is the same, and this makes this key have an affinity with the original key.
C major both opens and closes the set. In Prelude No. 2, the cycle of keys appears twice; in the first cycle, the number of bars per key ranges from 1 to 8; in the second half, after C every new key signature lasts for only one bar; the cycle concludes with 15 bars of C major.

This relationship is different from that of relative keys, a pair of major and minor scales that share the same notes but start on different tonics (e.g., G major and E minor).

Instruments that do not play in the key of C are known as transposing instruments. [5] The most common kind of clarinet, for example, is said to play in the key of B ♭. This means that a scale written in C major in sheet music actually sounds as a B ♭ major scale when played on the B-flat clarinet—that is, notes sound a whole tone lower ...
