Find a piano teacher

A piano uses a pattern of 12 notes that cycles throughout the keyboard.

You'll find C, C♯, D, D♯, E, F, F♯, G, G♯, A, A♯, and B repeating throughout.

• Sharp and flat notes are two names for the same key. D♭ and C♯ refer to identical keys.
• The visual pattern shows white keys for naturals and black keys for sharps or flats.
• Each repetition places the notes in progressively higher or lower registers.

This 12-note foundation unlocks all scales, chords, and melodies.
