Learning how to play all 12 keys on the Piano is quite an easy task. You only need time and patience. It took me one month to master one key and a total of 11 months to master every other key apart from the key of C which was my best key then.

Learn More »Every musician ought to be able to play all 12 keys on their musical instrument. As a Piano player, If you cannot play all 12 keys yet, then you know that there is a certain feeling that comes with the inability to do so. If you cannot play all 12 keys on the Piano yet, you know that it could take a hit on your confidence. I remember when I could not yet play all 12 keys on the Piano, I would feel nervous whenever I had to play somewhere and I saw an unfamiliar keyboard. I definitely would not have loved to be presented with a real acoustic Piano. I was nervous if a song has one or more modulations and my dexterity on the Piano was capped and it almost felt like I would not improve unless I learnt how to play all 12 keys on the Piano.

Though Mozart touched on various minor keys in his symphonies, G minor is the only minor key he used as a main key for his numbered symphonies.
G minor has been considered the key through which Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart best expressed sadness and tragedy,[1] and many of his minor key works are in G minor. Though Mozart touched on various minor keys in his symphonies, G minor is the only minor key he used as a main key for his numbered symphonies. In the Classical period, symphonies in G minor almost always used four horns, two in G and two in B♭ alto.[2] Another convention of G minor symphonies observed in Mozart's No. 25 and No. 40 was the choice of the subdominant of the relative key (B♭ major), E♭ major, for the slow movement; other non-Mozart examples of this practice include J. C. Bach Opus 6 No. 6 from 1769, Haydn's No. 39 (1768/69) and Johann Baptist Wanhal's G minor symphony sometime before 1771 (Bryan Gm1).[3] Isolated sections in this key within Mozart's compositions may also evoke an atmosphere of grand tragedy, one example being the stormy G minor middle section to the otherwise serene B♭ major slow movement in the Piano Concerto No. 20.
