Did you ever wonder why composers write

music in so many different keys?

ChoiceOfKey can help you to find your own

favorite one.

How does ChoiceOfKey work?

ChoiceOfKey will be driven by touch buttons:

1. Button „hurdGurdy“

Enjoy the endless loop of performances of

music samples based on Preludes of

Johann Sebastian Bach.

2. Buttons „major“, „minor“

Listen to different scales and try to

distinguish major-minor first, giving

attention to the characteristic thirds.

e.g. choose C - major - play

3. Button „JSBach“

You can select a Preludes „manually“.

For the keys A, B, C, D, E, F and G you

will find the Preludes in this way:

F - minor - JSBach - play

The robot plays a couple of bars of the

respective Prelude, which are more or

less characteristic for this composition.

With the set of 12 compositions for the

major keys and another 12 compositions

for the minor keys, Johann Sebastian Bach

proved that they all can be played on

a keyboard with a special tuning called

„well-tempered“.

The robot of ChoiceOfKey provides 14 of

these Preludes, however you can play also

in all further keys, e.g. F#. You can

force the robot to turn to another key

by doing the following:

C - major - JSBach - F# - play

i.e. you can listen to one of the

Preludes in any other of the keys.

4. Button „turntable“

Why do we use both sharps (#) and flats (b)

in key notation?

Turntable demonstrates that this is only a

question of practical usage. In practical

usage there is a limit of 7 sharps or

7 flats in one given notation.

You can verify this watching turntable

moving scales clockwise or counterclockwise

through all keys.
