Just be thankful that enharmonic keyboards have been relegated to the dustbin of history. Even if you knew where you were, you'd be lost.

Just gotta memorize them. There's only five, so it's not super difficult. Learning the key signatures is helpful, which is best done using pencil and manuscript paper. Try writing out all the key signatures in order, then try writing them out again using only notes and no key signature (use...

This was because: A) I didn’t know that Yamaha had their own pitch notation system. B) If the pitch range used the...
