F-sharp minor is a minor scale based on F-sharp, consisting of the pitches F♯, G♯, A, B, C♯, D, and E. For the harmonic minor, the E is raised to E♯ (enharmonic F♮). Its key signature has three sharps.
Its relative major is A major, and its parallel major is F♯ major (or enharmonically G♭ major). G♭ minor, its enharmonic, has two double-flats, which makes it impractical to use.
Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary.
Very few symphonies are written in this key, Haydn's Farewell Symphony being one famous example. George Frederick Bristow and Dora Pejačević also wrote symphonies in this key. This key is relatively common in guitar music (an example of this being Wonderwall by Oasis)
