How to use the circle of fifths to modulate and change keys. If we are writing or improvising a piece of music and we want to modulate to other keys, how do we decide which keys to move to? The Circle of 5ths not only explains the whole key system but makes clear which are the closest keys for modulation. This is incredibly helpful in helping us to design a key scheme for a piece of music. For example you may be writing or improvising in the key of G Major. If you want to modulate, where are the nearest related keys? E Minor is what we call the relative minor key i.e. it shares the F# key signature with the home key of G Major. D Major is next to G Major and simply involves adding C# to the F# we already have. C Major is next door to G Major moving in the opposite direction on the Circle of 5ths and simply involves eliminating the F#. Very quickly we discover that these are the most closely related keys and we learn from the Circle of 5ths what we need to do in order to get from one of these keys to another.
