Description

Piano Keys

Identify the repeating pattern of keys on the piano. Find the note "C" on your keyboard, as shown in the image below. This is the first note of the C Major scale: C, D, E, F, G, A, B, and back to C. Note the pattern of white keys: three white keys enclosing two black keys, and four white keys enclosing three black keys. You can also see it this way: the black keys repeat a five-key pattern of two black keys separated by one white key, then two white keys, then three black keys separated by one white key, then two white keys. This pattern is constant on all keyboards. Every note on the keyboard is represented in this single 12-note octave—they're just higher or lower in pitch.

Music Notes

The Wiki-How explains the music notes:

Bass Clef. The bass clef, also known as the F clef, is used for instruments in the lower registers, including the left hand of the piano, bass guitar, trombones, etc. The name "F clef" derives from its origins as the Gothic letter F, and the two dots above and below the "F" line on the staff. The staff of the bass clef represents different notes than that of the treble clef. The five lines, bottom to top, represent these notes: G B D F A (Good Boys Don't Fool Around). The four spaces, bottom to top, represent these notes: A C E G (All Cows Eat Grass).	Treble Clef. One of the first things you'll encounter when reading music is the clef. This sign is the legend that tells you approximately what range your instrument will play in. All instruments and voices in the higher ranges use the treble clef as their basis, and for this intro to reading music, we'll focus primarily on this clef for our examples. The Treble, or G clef, is derived from an ornamental Latin letter G. When notes are added to the staff in the treble clef, they will have the following values: The five lines, from the bottom up, represent the following notes: E G B D F. The four spaces, from the bottom up, represent these notes: F A C E. It may seem like a lot to remember, but if you use mnemonics—or word cues—that may help you remember them. For the lines, Every Good Boy Does Fine is the standard, and for the spaces, well, they spell out "FACE." Practicing with an online note recognition tool is another great way to reinforce these associations.
