Notes of the Black Piano Keys. Black piano keys are called accidentals; these are the sharps and flats of the piano. On the keyboard, there are five black accidentals per octave. A sharp makes a note a half step higher in pitch. A flat makes a note a half step lower in pitch. On the keyboard, a noteâs flat is the black key directly to its left.
