Chromatic modulation in Bach's Du grosser Schmerzensmann, BWV 300, m. 5-6 ( Play with half cadence, Play with PAC) transitions from FM to its relative minor dm through the inflection of C♮ to C♯ between the second and third chords. The minor key starts three semitones below its relative major; for example, A minor is three semitones below its relative, C Major. G major and E minor both have a single sharp in their key signature at F♯; therefore, E minor is the relative minor of G major, and conversely G major is the relative major of E minor.

Abstract and Introduction Most music theory books are like medieval medical textbooks: they contain unjustified superstition, non-reasoning, and funny symbols glorified by Latin phrases. How does music, in particular harmony, actually work, presented as a real, scientific theory of music? In particular we derive from first principles of Physics and Computation the following three fundamental phenomena of music: the Major Scale, the Standard Chord Dictionary, and the difference in feeling between the Major and Minor Triads.
