Question
How do I play "Happy Birthday" with only five notes and one hand?
Find a simple version of the song with few notes. Play only the treble line if you're playing one-handed.
Question
Where are the A and B keys?
There is a pattern of alternating groups of 3 and then 2 black keys (||| || ||| || ||| || |||). The A key is the white key on the left of the farthest right black key in any group of 3 black keys. The B key is the white key to the right of that one.
Question
I think the happy birthday piece is great, but the only part that doesn’t sound right is in the middle that has the two notes, A and B, one after another. Is this correct?
Sometimes when you are playing a piano piece, you come across a couple of notes that sound wonky. Seconds, for example playing 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, or 4-5, are used in several famous pieces. When you play the whole thing together at normal speed, A-B won't sound as odd.
