About this tool

A Natural minor's right-hand-only chart is as clean as C major's: every note — A, B, C, D, E, F and G — sits on a white key, so the thumb slides under at exactly the same two spots, into D and into the closing A, with nothing to dodge.

As the relative minor of C, A natural minor gives a darker color to an identical set of keys, which makes it a useful companion for hearing how much of a scale's character comes from the tonic rather than the notes themselves.

Because the right-hand pattern is this uncomplicated, it is easy to bring up to full tempo alone — once it is, check the left-hand-only chart for A minor or return to the full tool for both hands.

Example. C major in the right hand for one octave shows the finger numbers 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 5. The default two-octave right hand continues 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 5.

Limit. Fingerings are the stored one-octave charts for major and the three minor forms, not a custom editorial fingering you type in. The octave control is only 1 or 2.
