Piano Scale Fingering Chart
See the standard fingering for any major or minor piano scale on an interactive keyboard — right hand, left hand, one or two octaves, with thumb-under crossings marked.

Scale fingering is one of the first things piano teachers insist on: the same C major run feels effortless with 1-2-3-1-2-3-4-5 and clumsy with anything else. Each key has a standard fingering that keeps the thumb off black keys and places the crossings where the hand naturally folds.
This tool draws the chosen scale on a keyboard and numbers every key: 1 is the thumb, 5 the little finger. Pick the tonic, the scale form — major, natural, harmonic or melodic minor — the hand, and one or two octaves. The ↷ symbol in the note sequence marks where the thumb passes under (right hand ascending) or a finger crosses over the thumb (left hand).
The fingerings follow the standard charts used in conservatories and in Hanon's scale tables, including the special cases: B major's left hand starting on 4, the flat keys with the thumb landing on C and F, and the enharmonic spellings of each minor form.
