The key to keys is connecting groups of notes that go together.

Keys and their related scales use the same patterns of notes, sharps and flats.

For example:

  • C major - often the first key you learn - all the white notes on a piano
  • D flat major - all the black notes plus F + C

Test your knowledge of keys on the quizzes.
