ABSTRACT:
A multi-decked keyboard for musical instruments has three decks arranged for ease of playing with each hand. The primary deck is substantially a normal piano-like keyboard; the second deck is also substantially a normal piano-like keyboard except that the keys are shortened; and the third deck consists only of shortened white keys. The shortened keys permits a normal hand to reach from the primary to the third decks simultaneously. A specially designed key support system maintains a compact keyboard.
