Abstract

1478534 Keyboard musical instruments; musical notation R P MOORE 13 June 1974 [15 June 1973 3 May 1974] 26220/74 Heading G5J and G5X A musical instrument such as an organ or a piano has a keyboard comprising several rows of keys 14 mounted on a base 10 with means to couple the keys to devices for producing one or more notes, the keys being arranged in a manner similar to the keys on a typewriter keyboard. A bass or chord accompaniment can be provided by a foot operated pedal board. It can also be arranged that the pedals and possibly some of the keys, are arranged to produce single notes on depression by a small amount, further depression producing chords in addition to the notes. The keyboard can also contain one or more keys which produce chords when depressed in conjunction with any note producing key. A musical rotation system suitable for use with the instrument is described.
