Germany uses H.

They still use it there? I know that Bach used H for a G natural, so he was able to spell his name in his notes.

I know I can just google this... But is there any reason to be using it? It seems pretty ridiculous.

H is B-natural and B is B-flat in German. I guess it's easier once your used to it. Flats and naturals always mess me up too .

With how much sense that makes, I wonder why it never caught on to other countries, especially when a lot of the most influential classical artists are German.

The wind symphony at my school played Pasacaglia: Homage on BACH and it used H, like in Germany.. It's a weird concept.
