Focus
“The keyboard is not random. It repeats one visual map.”
Decode
- 01The keyboard repeats groups of two black keys and three black keys.
- 02C sits immediately before every two-black-key group.
- 03F sits immediately before every three-black-key group.
- 04Naming the natural notes in order: C–D–E–F–G–A–B.
- 05The same map transfers across every octave of the instrument.
Key Idea
One visual map, repeated across the whole keyboard.
- Two black keys → C is the white key directly to their left.
- Three black keys → F is the white key directly to their left.
Practise Now
- 01Find five different C keys across the instrument without using labels or stickers.
- 02Find five different F keys the same way, saying the name aloud each time.
What you should be able to do
You can locate C and F anywhere on the keyboard without labels and name the natural notes in order.
