The keyboard contains 12 fundamental notes repeated in different octaves.

The complete set includes C, D♭, D, E♭, E, F, G♭, G, A♭, A, B♭, and B.

• Sharp and flat notes are two names for the same key. For example, C♯ is the same key as D♭.
• Each octave spans 7 natural notes plus 5 accidentals.
• On an 88-key piano, this 12-note pattern repeats over 7 times.

Understanding these 12 notes is essential for reading music and learning scales.

A private piano lesson in Ferntree Gully generally runs about $40/h.

The cost may differ depending on several factors:

• The student's level (beginner, intermediate, advanced)
• The teacher's experience and qualifications (degrees, certifications, performance history)
• The duration and frequency of lessons
• The format (virtual, in-person at your location, or at the teacher's premises)

Choosing online lessons can save money while maintaining quality instruction.

The rule guides you to work on weaknesses rather than repeating what you already know.

• Focus on fundamentals like hand position, rhythm accuracy, and dynamics.
