Rebel Muse is the most cleanest and brightest tattoo shop I've been in. In my opinion Joe went above and beyond to make me comfortable and make my first experience both professional and fun!! I would recommend both Joe and Rebel Muse in the future to everyone looking to get ink!! Read Less After the work was done Joe gave me great verbal instructions to care for my tattoo but also sent me a follow up email with written instructions and answered all the questions I had both before and after the work was done. The process was completely painless and Joe kept me chatting so it was done before I knew it!! I think if I hadn't been chatting I would have drifted off to sleep. ![]() Joe, patiently took the transfer film off and on until I was completely happy with the placement of my tattoo. I was glad that Joe was honest and upfront about what would look best. I had script written out by my mom and Joe advised me that for it to look best he would make it a little larger which was fine with me. Who invented the piano keyboard layout? An Italian man named Bartolomeo Cristofori (– January 27, 1731) – before him there were other keyboard-based instruments, just not arranged in the way we know today.I got my first tattoo done on Tuesday by Joe Campos at Rebel Muse's new location at Preston and Campbell!! The place is so clean and bright I felt completely comfortable going there for my first ink. Maintaining the consistency between white and black keys with natural and sharp/flat notes, respectively, makes quickly identifying the notes much easier. If a keyboard were to be laid out by simply alternating between black and white keys, you would then have white keys that were “flats” and black keys that were “naturals”, leading to a lot of confusion. Why are pianos missing black keys? In 12-tone western scales, the notes F and C do not have corresponding flats (Fb is just E natural and Cb is B natural). The arrangement of black and white keys as they are enables our brain to simplify the piano, freeing up space to focus on the more complex aspects of music (dynamics, rhythm/feel, etc.) FAQs Without it, our brains would have to work impossibly hard to even play the most simple of tunes. Conclusionīreaking down the 88 keys on a keyboard into smaller, more easily memoizable patterns is what gives us the ability to play music on the piano. However, unlike the guitar you don’t have different hand shapes for different octaves – if you know the shapes for one octave, you know them in every. Whereas on an instrument like the guitar, learning a scale in a different key is much easier as you simply move your hand up or down a specific number of frets. With the exception of C major, each major key contains its own unique chord shapes and fingerings that need to be learned. The keyboard we’ve come to know today is built in favor of C major, accepting the notion that white keys are easier to play than black keys. Problems & benefits of the current key layout Having black and white keys can also help us aurally with identifying and dictating the notes – white keys are “natural”, and black keys are either “sharp” or “flat”, depending on whether the note you’re referencing is a half-step up or down from its respective white key.įor example, the note “F#” can also be referred to as “Gb” – sharp meaning ‘above F’ or flat meaning ‘below G’ – either way, it’s the same note. Each (musical) key on the piano contains its own uniquely identifiable pattern of white and black keys that make memorizing the locations of the notes a whole lot easier. Starting from C major and working our way around the Circle of Fifths, we can add one black key to the key signature from C-Gb, and then subtract one from B to C. Playing only white keys but starting on a note other than C will give you the various modes of C major (Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, Locrian). Playing all of the white keys starting on any C will give you the C major diatonic scale. All instruments are built in favor of (easiest to play) one particular key, and for the piano that key is C major. The layout of the keyboard can also help us identify patterns among scales and intervals. This binary pattern is then repeated up the entire piano, visually and mentally simplifying the keyboard a great deal (it’s much easier to memorize 2 sets of 6 notes than one set of 88!) Scales and Intervals on the Keyboard ![]() The first pattern we notice is two separate clusters of black and white keys – one with 3 black and 4 white, the other with 2 black and 4 white. Within the seven 12-note octaves of the piano, simpler patterns can be identified to help us navigate our way around the keyboard.
