If D minor were a person, who would she be?

If D minor were a person, who would she be?
According to producer Paolo Pietropaolo, D minor is part femme fatale and part vengeful vamp - "sexy and mysterious, with a glint in her dark, sultry eyes."
Yes, that's a music tonality Pietropaolo is describing. In fact, D minor's just one of the many keys he and Denise Ball have personified by weaving together colorful descriptions, pop culture, and epic classical compositions. Get to know D minor, and you'll never hear her the same again...
D minor: The Ice Queen was produced by Pietropaolo with Denise Ball for the Signature Series on CBC Music.
