Adamfort08, when the piano was invented in the 18th century, even Bach (as a harpsichord player) himself was quite disapproval regarding the piano.

The fact is, people always feel disapproval to new things, and fail to see its greatness because it is more comfortable to stick with what u r used to.

now play C major on that keyboard

@fr3d420 You can convert a regular piano to a Janko keyboard by removing the keys and replacing them with Janko keys (assuming you can find or have made keys for your piano). The rest of the piano action remains the same.

@watercolour That's because the piano was nothing like it is today. Besides, towards the end of his life, he did approve of the new model that Cristifori showed him.

This is an entirely new way of playing the instrument. The harpsichord and piano have the same keyboard. This is just extremely confusing.

I play a chromatic accordion, which is simliar (but a different pattern). Dynamics are better - buttons are faster, and you don't have speed, depth, or distance differences from the front of the key to the back.

The black & white keyboard has a good mental reference map missing here.

That's good for finding your starting point or where to make leaps to, so has an advantage over this.

I think this keyboard would be good for new learners to start on, but to give more of a mental map, I would use different colours on keys, one colour for each note of an octave repeating them. That would put adults off switching to this, but for beginners it looks like a good system to start and continue with.

@fr3d420 yes, it was invented about 1880 i think, its the Janko Piano. the key size isnt exactly the same, but the layout is the same of chromatone
