What it is

A chart of the piano keyboard with every white and black key labelled, aligned with the same notes on the grand staff (treble and bass clef). Middle C (C4) is marked clearly.

How to use it

  • Print at 100% on A4 or US Letter, landscape. Tape two copies together for a longer range if you like.
  • Place it behind the keys or on the music stand while you practise.
  • Use it to link the three things a pianist needs: the key, the note name and the note on the staff.

Patterns to notice

  • Black keys come in groups of two and three. C is always just left of the group of two; F is just left of the group of three.
  • Each black key has two names: C# = Db, F# = Gb, and so on.
  • E–F and B–C have no black key between them: these are the natural half steps.

Read note names and the staff and clefs. Practise with the note reading trainer, and write your own music on grand staff paper.
