You might think why there are keys between the white keys, Even i had this Question in my mind when i see the
keyboard. Logic is as you go right hand side of the keyboard there is increase in the octave levels and the pith of the
music. If there is no middle black key your keyboard size would have been doubled to incorporate those many notes.
One more thing is the extensibility and stretch of the board.

Oh, if you are a beginner you may feel it is too much info on the first day. So lets start the first tune on the keyboard.
