I just can't seem to stop playing in Eb. It just falls under the fingers so nicely. I'm playing some arpeggio stuffs inspired by Cage's In a Landscape. Makes me feel ever so sensitive and artistic. :-) |

B major.... all blacks, only 2 whites (B and E) :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
play all the black notes and nothing else, to get the 'chinese' pentatonic scale.... well, kind of :D |

side by side on my piano keyboard oh lord why can't we? *throws up* |

That's how you play the main riff from Take Five by Dave Brubeck. The bass notes are Eb, Ab, and the chords are Bb, Eb,Gb and Ab,Db,Eb. Now playing a riff in 5/4 on all black keys, that'll really wow the serpents. |

auld lang syne is in the pentatonic scale *waits for applause of his astounding musical knowledge* |

I'm stuck in C#m right now... |

*applause* for leaky Bizzy, that's an odd key... I used to have a guitar riff I played in C#m. I don't have all my keys memorized on keyboard so to shake hands with an unfamiliar one I like to find the dorian mode and noodle in it. In E / C#m that starts on F# which makes it a queer one to finger. |

"thats" are good too. indian scales, used in Ragas. Very cool! |

How do I detune a western scale into a "that"? |

I still think Cichli sounds like Smalltown Boy, and Bronski Beat should sue. |

d minor its the saddest key. gotta love utter saddness. "i prefer the black keys. adds exotic flavours to the melody." ok, but what if you are in the key of C#? then the white keys are the ones that add flavor :) Its all relative. |
||||||||

i used to pick them out 10 a penny but not so many recently s club party by s club 7 = say you'll be there by spice girls but actually its probably the same writer so he probably wouldn'd sue himself what's cichli? |

"d minor - the saddest of keys" - from spinal tap? |

I find the design of the piano keyboard breaks the relativity of the key signatures by making certain phrases easier or more difficult in certain key sigs. Like, you can slip off a black key and onto a white key with the same finger in some keys but you couldn't pull that move in C major (except with an accidental but let's not split hairs). On the other hand if you're playing guitar or bass, neglecting the open strings, a scale position feels pretty much the same if you slide it up or down a few frets. |

C#m is tricky, but when you get stuck playing it, it gets easier. I'm the Mastress (looks like Matress) of C#m now... |

yeah i like the differences in playing the guitar & piano. you learn a lot from doing both. btw my amp goes to 11. |
||||||||

|
|
haha, didnt realize spinal tap said that no, d minor really is the saddest key. |
||||||||
|

Wish I could play the piano... TAP LIVES! "Hope you like our new direction" |

I dont know what key I play in. I just have a set of keys on my synth that I like. the E,F#, A and B are hardly ever used. And when it doesnt right, I just transpose it in cakewalk until it has the right sound. I can read notes, but it takes me some time. Deliberately disconnected myself from things as chords and reading notes. I can play more intuitive now. |

I'd like to design a flat keyboard with no black keys - every key would be a semitone apart. And I'd have icons on them so you could find your way around. Instead of do, re, mi, it would be Hello Kitty, Goatse, Aphex. |

favorite key? me |
||||||||
|
|

since everything is wohl-temperiertet nowadays, i don't have any specific favorite keys... |

I used to play clarinet. And since for sharps and flats you often have to reach around and diddle litle levers it tends to make you think of key signatures as absolutes. There are so many "accidents" and historically imposed parameters in music - culture, the design of instruments like the keyboard, the shape of the human hand, and they all contribute to making one key different from another in lots of subtle ways. I wonder, since electronic instruments are becoming so common, will pure temperament ever come back in a big way? After all you can reconfigure the tuning at the push of a button... |

"I wonder, since electronic instruments are becoming so common, will pure temperament ever come back in a big way? After all you can reconfigure the tuning at the push of a button... " yes. most experimental composers today are experimenting with microtonal music. |

Well yes, but I'm thinking of hoi polloi. |
