showing you in this lesson.<\/p>\n<p>But before we get into all of that, it&#8217;s very important for us to refresh our minds on what black and white keys are and the difference between them.<\/p>\n<p>So, what are black keys and how are they different from the keys categorized as white keys?<\/p>\n<h2>Black Keys Vs White Keys<\/h2>\n<p>The finger keys on the keyboard have two different colors: black and white.<\/p>\n<p>There are twelve major keys on the keyboard and each of them can be associated with black or white and this depends on the color of the finger key.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the key of C major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=CCFF99&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;is described as a white key because the first tone of the C major scale (which is C):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,,&amp;color=CCFF99&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;is a white note.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from the key of C major which is entirely made up of white notes, it&#8217;s possible for a key to be made up black and white notes.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>For example, the key of B major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,B,Cs,Ds,E,Fs,Gs,As,B,&amp;color=CCFF99&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;consists of two white notes (B and E):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,B,E,&amp;color=CCFF99&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;and five black notes (C#, D#, F#, G#, and A#):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,,Cs,Ds,Fs,Gs,As,&amp;color=CCFF99&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nHowever, it is considered as a white key because its first tone (which is B):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,B,,&amp;color=CCFF99&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;is a white finger key.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>A Short Note On The Seven White Keys<\/h3>\n<p>In every octave, there are twelve notes:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Seven of

of F major is one flat:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>F major:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\"
