Thread Name: Music Notation: Rule of 7
Subject: RE: Music Notation: Rule of 7
I have a hymnal with the tune Londonderry (a.k.a. Danny Boy) in Db - that's FIVE flats. But you could play it straight from the music as if it was ordinary D (2 sharps).

Same thing works if you change a B(#####) to Bb(bb) - just play the written dots, but a semitone higher or lower.
