When Online Dove moved to apply standard pitch (A=440) to note names, this resulted in some keynotes being changed. Ben Kipling and myself agreed that the note name should reflect the pitch standard, so sharp of F# international is Gb, and on pitch or flat
of pitch is F#.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Could I ask why the new ring of six for Kemberton, Shropshire (soon to be eight) are being shown on the online Dove website as being in the key of A#?<br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">If I remember my music theory correctly, A# Major is not in the circle of fifths as it’s structure, with three double sharps, is considered too complicated for practical use.

<div dir="ltr">The tenor at Kemberton, according to the nominal frequency given on the Dove page is 11 cents flat of B-flat, so why not show the ring in that commonly used key? To add insult to injury, one of the bells is shown as being in E-flat, which makes
even more of a nonsense of it all!<br>

</div>
<div dir="ltr">Rings of bells are musical instruments and therefore, in my opinion, should conform to the tried and tested conventions of musical notation.
