C♯ minor is a minor scale based on C♯, with the pitches C♯, D♯, E, F♯, G♯, A, and B. Its key signature consists of four sharps. Its relative major is E major. Its parallel major, C♯ major, is usually replaced by D♭ major, since C♯ major, which contains seven sharps, is not normally used. D♭ minor, its enharmonic, having eight flats, including the B
, has a similar problem. (The same enharmonic situation occurs with the keys of A♭ major and G♯ minor).
