D-flat major. The Free Spirit. Number 10 in the Signatures Series on CBC Radio – a series giving voice to the personalities of different keys.

Takakkaw Falls, BC

My youngest is D-flat Major. We listened to it last night and our jaws dropped as point after point rang true for her (minus the home-made jewelry and minus an incapacity for cynicism). It was almost freaky.

Check out the whole series. There are 10 personifications of keys up now – with a couple more to come. You’ll probably recognize, if not yourself, then someone you know being described in at least one of them.

Me – I have an overwhelming urge to go to the piano and play in D-flat Major.
