C minor is written with 3 flats. 163 of the 7,465 recordings here whose analyses settled on a key are in it — 2.2% of them, which makes it the 18th most used of the 24.

Its relative major is E flat major: the same signature, a different tonic, and the one key you can move into without changing a single accidental.

The median tempo of the 163 is 117 BPM, and the busiest tempo band is 90–99 BPM with 31 recordings.

A recording is filed here when more than half of its analyses agreed on the key. That rule, and not a person, produced this list.

E♭ major: same key signature — 3 flats · G minor: one accidental away, a fifth up · F minor: one accidental away, a fifth down · C major: same tonic, major instead

All 163 recordings here more than half of whose analyses put them in C minor, most analysed first. The list is complete on purpose: the tempo pages above cut the same recordings finer, and nothing on this site should be reachable only through a search. Measured up to 23.06.2022 — AcousticBrainz stopped collecting in 2022, so nothing released after that date is here.
