Chapter 2. Performance

Transposing the Key of the Keyboard

(Transpose)

By using the “Transpose function,” you can transpose your performance without

changing the notes you play. For example, even if the song is in a difficult key with

numerous sharps ( ) or flats (

), you can transpose it to a key that is easier for you

to play.

When accompanying a vocalist, you can easily transpose the pitch to a range that is

comfortable for the singer, while still playing the notes as written (i.e., with the same

fingering positions).
