In an earlier forum topic it was concluded that there are ...............24 Keys and 30 ways to spell them.

Generally speaking, of any of these keys, what information would you expect a professional musician
to know off the top of his head ?

For Example

1. Key Signature

2. Chords in the Key

3. Chord Tones

4. Relative minor / Major

5. Progressions - I IV V what others ?

6. Popular chords borrowed with other keys - what might they be ?

So.... Of any key, what information would you expect a professional musician
to know off the top of his head ?

Thanks for answering my [strike]rant [/strike] :dry: question in the news.
Much of your explanation a reminder :) of stuff explained throughout the lessons, acoustic genius series and forum.
Thanks.

Although my question was general.
I overlooked Genre as a consideration.
It would be interesting to hear a more thoughts on that.
