Do violins prefer sharp keys?
Yes, the sharp keys lie more naturally than the flat keys on a violin. This is because the tuning of the four strings corresponds to the tonic notes of the sharp major keys G (1 sharp), D (2 sharps), A (3 sharps), and E (4 sharps). The minor keys are mixed, as follows: G (2 flats), D (1 flat), A (no sharps/flats), and E (1 sharp). Overall, therefore, the open strings are more comfortable in sharp keys than in flat keys.
Why are there no sharps or flats between B and C or E and f?
In the modern (tempered) major scale the interval between the third and fourth, the seventh and octave is always a semitone. In C-major where there are no sharps or flats the third and fourth notes are E and F, the seventh and octave is B and C. That is why there are no sharps or flats. It also occurs in f-major between the 7th and octave
