but not, as I recall, on stringed instruments, if you're doing it right (though in concertos and ensemble settings with piano for tuning reasons they might squelch the difference- I wouldn't know.)

This thread is not about 'hard' or 'easy' key signatures, but about unsung ones. Let's get back to the topic, please!

Pianistically, A-flat minor and G-sharp minor are identical.  There is no variance in hand positions.

Nobody said there was.

Thanks, Dax - reminds me of long-forgotten theory exercises! If I'd been handed a Sibelius transposition in B sharp major (see post #6 above), it most definitely would not have been a swell party and the piano might not have got off so lightly ...
