The piano keys on a piano accordion are fairly easy to read as long as the notes stay within the treble staff. However, most musicians can improve their speed on reading the notes above and below the staff.
This 66 card set is ideal for the student who is mastering the 41 keys of the piano keyboard. The 41 keyboard cards are custom designed for the piano accordion and are NOT standard piano flash cards. The "bottom" of the card is the highest notes, as played on the accordion for example. The range of cards go from Low F to High A.
The cards also include 25 cards for the symbols
