To help clarify some of the different key sizes (and shapes) in use among various manufacturers, we’ve put together a photo chart that compares the keys found on 12 different keyboards with a standard Yamaha 6-foot grand piano key and an Apple standard computer keyboard.

Our printable piano keyboard with note names is a valuable tool for pianists of all levels. By providing a visual representation of the piano keys and their corresponding notes, this tool will help you memorize the notes on the keyboard and, in turn, have more effective practice sessions.

Most traditional pianos have 88 keys and measure five feet wide but differ dramatically in height and length. For example, the smallest upright piano, called the spinet, is only two feet deep. While the biggest, a concert grand, can measure up to nine feet long!

In this lesson we will take a look at various piano keyboard diagrams. We will learn all about the layout of keys on the 88 key piano as well as keyboards with less keys. We will look at 88-key, 76-key, 61-key, 49-key, 37-key, 36-key and 32-key keyboards.
