On certain German recordings I have, I see the terms
"moll" and "dur" associated with the keys of pieces.
What do "moll" and "dur" mean in German?

dur = major, Eb -dur is Eb major

Actually, E flat major in German is Es-dur.

moll = minor, e moll is e minor

Nope H is always H flat or sharp, minor or major, Dur or Moll! no H flat exists anyways as that is called Ais! Cis is sharp, Ces is flat and the Tonleiter goes CDEFGAH, C! yet I dont know why the use H instead of B? I read that it had something to do
with Gutenberg's Printing press ?
