G major is a major scale based on G, with the pitches G, A, B, C, D, E, and F♯. Its key signature has one sharp, F♯; in treble-clef key signatures, the sharp-symbol for F is usually placed on the first line from the top, though in some Baroque music it is placed on the first space from the bottom. G major's relative minor is E minor, and its parallel minor is G minor. For orchestral works in G major, the timpani are typically set to G and D a fifth apart, rather than a fourth apart as for most other keys. [ - ]
