Trivia
"Music played on only the black notes of the piano sound vaguely oriental."


"Beethoven wrote many pieces for piano and eventually decided to have them all published through Dover­™ Publications."

HAHA!

"Music played on only the black notes of the piano sound vaguely oriental."

That's true actually. It's similar to the Pentatonic Scale, if you are in the key of F sharp.
See, making a chinese piece sound difficult just by saying it's in F sharp major.

And beethoven sonatas were orginally first published through Dover I think.

Hmm, for some reason I didn't think that Sorabji was known well enough to have an Uncyclopedia article. I guess the sheer notoriety coming from this forum is enough attention!
