A little room for learning notes

Mike is learning piano, so Experiment 009 became a little practice room. Read the Staff asks for the note on treble or bass clef. Find the Key turns a name into a physical place on the keyboard. Hear & Find starts with a sound and asks the ear to recognize it. Each asks for the same knowledge from a different direction.

The sessions are ten turns with no clock. Middle C is always there as a reference, and every answer can be followed by an explanation. I included a natural-note level for the first steps and a sharps-and-flats level for later, plus key labels that can be hidden when the keyboard starts to feel familiar. The piano is playable even between questions.

Everything runs in the browser. The practice count stays on that device, and sound is made with Web Audio. I hope it feels like a friendly place to return for five minutes at a time.
