Major scale

            The C major scale is  easy to  play on the harmonium or keyboard
            because it does not use black keys. It is easy to practice playing this
            scale with your fingers in the beginning. The process of learning music
            generally starts with this scale.  The notes of the C major scale are
            played when all the keys from 1 to 8 in the image are played. Try it
            on your instrument too.
