♦Mod on GFH.SE
I have a wide range of interests, including music, history, and math. I have been playing music for three of four years now and play the cornet, recorder, and piano. 100% of the music on my computer is classical, so you should know what genres I prefer ;). I enjoy studying any history and researching my genealogy. American English is my first language, pero tambien hablo Español. I am also currently taking Calculus 1.
If you are interested in or are an avid genealogist, please consider joining the below site:

Ambidextrous instruments Not all, but if you look at the barrel of a recorder, the holes are not in a straight line. They are aligned on two curves, one for each hand (see the alto in this image). The curves are larger for the larger recorders. The alto, which never has keys is difficult to play with the hands switched unless you have unusually large hands, which few people do. |

Ambidextrous instruments Only higher pitched recorders (soprano and up, possibly alto) can be played with the right hand on top. Try playing a tenor or a bass with your right on top. Impossible |

Comfortable notes in a key I know that. The OP seemed more interested in modern music and not a lot of songs these days use that cadence. It's mostly hymns and musicals. |

Figuring out the difference between major and relative minor scales? What pieces did you look at? For example, take a look at the second or fourth movements of Eine Kleine Nachtmusik. Although the fourth is an anacrusis, the next measure stars with a D while the signature is G. Look at King Cotton. This is also fairly common in hymns. By common, I mean about 10-25%. |

Comfortable notes in a key @Tim I would have included that in the answer, but I don't think that's the type of cadence the OP is looking for. |

Figuring out the difference between major and relative minor scales? "Songs in a key will use the same chords whether they are in maj. or relative min." No, if a song is in C, for example, the relative minor (Am) will not involve the same chords. With the same chords, the tonic is still on C, not A. |

Figuring out the difference between major and relative minor scales? Pieces often start on the dominant, not always the tonic. They end on the tonic 99.99% of the time. |

Accidentals in First Species Counterpoint Don't worry, the limit's 30 000 characters, almost six times the length of the answer. :P |
