F-sharp minor is a minor scale based on F, consisting of the pitches F, G, A, B, C, D, and E. Its key signature has three sharps. Its relative major is A major and its parallel major is F-sharp major (or enharmonically G-flat major).


The F-sharp natural minor scale is:

 {
\omit Score.TimeSignature \relative c' {
  \key fis \minor \time 7/4 fis^"Natural minor scale" gis a b cis d e fis e d cis b a gis fis2
  \clef F \key fis \minor
} }

Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary. The F-sharp harmonic minor and melodic minor scales are:

 {
\omit Score.TimeSignature \relative c' {
  \key fis \minor \time 7/4 fis^"Harmonic minor scale" gis a b cis d eis fis eis d cis b a gis fis2
} }
 {
\omit Score.TimeSignature \relative c' {
  \key fis \minor \time 7/4 fis^"Melodic minor scale (ascending and descending)" gis a b cis dis eis fis e? d? cis b a gis fis2
} }
