* It is so called because it starts on the note C and contains no sharps or flats in the key signature.
* The C major scale is used in a wide variety of music, from classical to folk to rock.
* It is often considered to be the most "basic" of all musical scales, as it is the first scale that is usually learned by beginning musicians.
