What is a "key"?

A key is a component of a musical instrument, such as a piano or wind instrument, that is pressed or activated to produce a sound. On a piano, keys are the individual levers that are pressed to strike the strings inside, creating notes.

A key is defined by a specific starting note, called the tonic, and includes a set of related notes that are used to create melodies and harmonies. For example, the key of C-major starts on the note C and uses a set of notes that are based on the C-major scale.
