the pianoforte, reinvented
White keys are the scale.
A piano's white and black key pattern and the notes they play are fixed. The Glissand piano keyboard is not.
Choose a scale; the white keys become those notes and the black keys fill the gaps as sharps and flats.
A white-key glissando is always a scale run.
On a piano, a run up the white keys is always the white-key notes: C major, A natural minor, or another mode of those notes. Here the run is the scale you choose. Ode to Joy and Little lamb follow the home note. Für Elise uses the black key just below degree 3, and it is the familiar tune when that degree is E.
Mary Had a Little Lamb uses the same white keys in every key. Play it in C, then try G or F.
Pick a style. Pads show the chord, the note, and which bars to play. Play that chord, then the next pad. Change tonic anytime to run the same loop in another key.
