Q: Hey bill, how's it going? Quick question, if I'm writing in a mode of the major scale, do I change the key signature to fit? For example, if I'm writing in G Lydian, a mode of the D major scale, do I make the key signature D Major (##) or do I keep the key signature as G Major (#) and just use an accidental next to every fourth degree (so, every C, I would change to C#) Thanks man
A: using a 2-sharp key signature for G lydian is going to be very convenient. usually it's nice to write "G lydian" at the top of the page, so people don't get the wrong idea
