Having trouble understanding the circle of fifths
I am looking at the the mnemonic and circle of fifths in the music theory for dummies book. It says the mnemonic 'father charles goes down and ends battle' is the order the sharps appear in the major scale. The first sharp in the b major scale is C#. How am I understanding this wrong?
