Playing Accidentals on the Piano
Now let’s step outside the key of C and explore the G major scale.
G major has one sharp: F#.
- On the staff, the F# will be marked only once: in the key signature.
- On your keyboard, find any F# and remember its position. It’s the first of three black keys.
Remember, in G major, F will always be sharp unless marked by a natural sign.
