How To Learn To Play Piano White Notes and Keys
If you want to learn how to play piano white notes and keys or any other instrument, ONLY the seven letter names of A, B, C, D, E, F and G are used in the entire realm of music! As you can see on the keyboard picture above this sequence of letter names is repeated over and over again from the bottom of the keyboard to the top.
The black keys are labeled with the corresponding sharp and flat notes next to each white key. Sharps simply move up to the right such as from C to C sharp. Flats simply move down to the left such a from E to E flat.
PIANO KEY NOTES
There are two very easy ways to visualize and remember the names of the white keys on your piano and keyboard.
1. The piano key notes located directly underneath the 2 black note groups are always going to be C-D-E regardless of where you are on the piano keyboard. Go to your piano keyboard right now and locate all of the C-D-E white piano keys located under each 2 black note group.
2. The piano key notes located directly underneath the 3 black note groups are always going to be F-G-A-B at any location on your piano or keyboard. (Reminder: electric keyboards usually have only 60 keys total but the arrangement of notes is still the same.)
The piano key of C located in the very middle of the piano keyboard represents Middle C. To truly begin to learn how play the piano you must have these C piano key names memorized.
We will refer to this piano key as Middle C from now on. Middle C Position refers to both of your thumbs resting on and sharing Middle C.
HOW TO PLAY THE PIANO
To learn how to play the piano practice these 2 exercises for a few days and you will have all of the piano key names memorized:
1. Go to your keyboard now and start to play all of the C-D-E piano key groups from the lowest (bottom left) to the highest (top right) on your keyboard. Say C – D -E as you play each piano key group.
2. Now do the same with the F-G-A-B piano key groups from the lowest to the highest.
