Sheet Music Digital One Minute Lesson #3 - Finding MIDDLE C
     

Middle C is the most important key in music because it is the key from which all other notes are referenced.

Middle C on the piano is the C key that is the closest to the middle!

All keyboards have a Middle C but not always in the same position due to the different number of keys available on keyboards.
There are two main sizes of keyboards - 49 notes and 61 notes.
MIDDLE C is highlighted in green in the keyboards below.

 



 

If your keyboard has different number of keys, use the C white key that is the closest to the middle to be "Middle C".

 

Important Note: While you will find many C keys on your piano or keyboard, there is only one MIDDLE C!
