Key prompt

(Key moves slightly)

The first key prompt is “C4” (one octave above middle “C”.) When you see the key move, play that key. The next prompt is “F4.” Play that key. Continue until the song is finished. Notice that the Disklavier patiently waits for you to play the right key before proceeding to the next key. Also, notice that if you happen to miss the cue, it will gently remind you what the key is every few seconds until you play the right key.

Key notation

As a reference, “C3” is middle “C,” which means “C4” is an octave above middle “C” and so on.
