• music magazine — If anyone has the time and the inclination, music magazine could really use some love. It was rightly nominated for deletion because, in its current form, it's nothing resembling an article. Still, the subject deserves a well-written article.
• unusual key signatures Traditional music in Europe and the US has 12 major and 12 minor keys to choose from. But infinitely more is possible. For example, the 7 church modes include major and minor as two of the 7 possibilities. Paul Hindemith and others used a chromatic scale. Some composers wrote music to be performed in two keys simultaneously. Non-western music might divide the octave into 5 or 9 parts instead of 12. And finally, electronic music allows us to use a continuity of pitches.
