Abstract

The chromatic keyboard is intended for a keyboard musical instrument, such as a piano, accordion, electronic organ etc. It consists of white lower keys (H, Des,Es,F etc = B, D-flat, E-flat, F etc) and black upper keys (C,D,E, Fis, As etc = C,D, E, F-sharp, A-flat etc). The upper keys are arranged between each pair of adjoining lower keys. All keys are additionally colour-coded, e.g. by stick-on coloured labels. The colours are selected such that the first three keys of the tone scale in a given musical key are always identified by a given colour. The arrangement simplifies playing without knowledge of musical notation and immediate transposition into other musical keys.
