Scales for the Piano

Pick a root — the pattern lights up across the whole piano.

The Piano scale reference: choose a root and one of 24 types — common, pentatonic, blues, modal, bebop, symmetric, world — and see the pattern lit on the keys themselves, a voice for every one of its 88 keys (A0–C8).

The Piano answers touch, so practice these maps at more than one dynamic — the pattern is the same, but the hand that plays it soft and loud owns it twice.
