is all the white keys from middle C up to the next C on a piano. A total of 8 piano keys.This I learned from reading a book.They go on to say that starting the next black key up from middle C puts you in the key of D flat major or something like that.
So, some of the piano keys that are in C major are also in D flat major. I guess that's legal.
My question is, what about the other 80 piano keys? What about the 8 keys starting at the top of C major and going from there? And so on...
