I tend to lean towards a nice E minor key.

That's true. I like the famous prelude Op.3 No.2... and also a bunch of other pieces....
but C minor is always the best..

I'm playing the Nocturne of Rachmaninoff now, it's lovely, even though it's in A minor.

ALPRAS

I didnt know that He have made a nocturne. Ill check it out :P

My favorite key is the A blues key, so A Mixolydian. or, wait, that's a scale. How about Gb Minor.

C major's always good.  :P One of Koji Kondo's general traits as a composer is using as little accidentals as possible, and he composes some awesome songs, I'm sure we can all agree.  ;)

Yeah. Not I said GENERAL traits. ;)

Okay, you win. :P

I'll tell you who uses C Major a lot. Grant Kirkhope. Either he goes C major, then F sharp minor then E flat Major, all in 7 measure, or he puts a lot of his music in C major.

I can agree, but all those accidentals resides in the C-major key. Revolving and adapting in the music.

I like C-minor.

I love flats; dislike sharps. That's an odd thing, most wind players like flats, while strings like sharps.

It's weird.

SirIngusBingus

Quotemost wind players like flats

UNTRUE sax players usually prefer sharps. Same with trumpets.

Petpetfood

I prefer flats. Gah, this is turning into the What do you prefer, flats or sharps? topic.
