Question:

Do piano sheet music also translate to keyboards?

I want to purchase a keyboard similar to a piano but is also portable and was wondering, if I want to play piano music sheets on the keyboard, would it translate to the same keys? This is assuming I get a keyboard with 88 keys. Also, if I get a keyboard with less keys than a regular piano, would I still be able to play piano sheet music? Or would I have to translate it somehow into keyboardkeys? Last thing, anyone know a good keyboard that sounds like a piano under $500?

Answer:

I have a keyboard in my own room ( where I study ) and a piano at my parents house and yes it's the same. you can play piano sheets on keyboard.
Sorry- the music shown- the fist one isn't chordal so it won't sound like it is written and the second one doesn't have complete chords. They're not too hard to play as written- can you read sheet music? that's a good place to start- then just work through it slowly until you know it of the top of your head. As for not knowing how to play it on the piano- simply play the bass part with your left hand (the lines go G B D F A, and the spaces go ACEG - bottom to top) and the melody (treble) with your right hand (you should know the lines and spaces of the treble clef- FACE and E G B D F) the Sharps and Flats are the black keys- # that's sharp and the 'b' like symbol is a flat Sorry i couldn't offer more help :/ Good Luck :)
