How does this even work? How do you find where to start?

[Doctor Phibes]

It's both harder to play, and more limited.

I'm tempted to ask what problem does this solve.

[Mik]

A solution in search of a problem

The video maker states “One Simple Change, and a Whole New Tonal World”

Uhhh, no… Regular pianos can play simply in C, too. No new world, just limiting yourself to one very small world…

There may be some interesting harmonics that can occur, but not enough to justify everything that is lost.

I sent that to Grotrian and Bootsy (remember them?) Wirth the caption:

The C-Major piano. It is beautiful in it's own way but one is enough.

[jon-nyc]

Bootsy's reply: "Leave Debussy out of it!"

[Copper]

Apparently, C Major is the only option.

Let's say I had some music in G Major, would I get a piano with 1 black key?
I guess it would be 1 black key for each octave.

You’d have to transpose it in run time.

And A minor.

Art need not be aimed at solving problems.

On occasions you want to introduce new problems deliberately just to see if the new problems can inspire new art.

Not even ok to make that joke.

@Horace said in No blacks here...:

And on top of that you make a white supremacy hand gesture. You are truly a horrible human being.
