On a piano, a key is the thing you press down with your finger. A note is what you hear with your ear. The note is also what you see on your sheet music. Also, on the piano, you will notice you have a pattern of 3 white keys and 2 black keys, followed by 4 white keys and 3 black keys. If you start at middle C and play 8 notes, that is also a key. That is called the key of C. That tells which set of notes are normally used when playing a piece of music. So the term key can mean two different things. If someone says, "This is in the key of C," it does not mean the only note you hear will be a C. You will hear many different notes.
It's in a major key, and it's C major
It's a made-up word that basically means off-key. Although Randy Jackson may think it's a cool word to say, it actually has no real meaning in relation to vocal performances and is probably said to just confuse the singers. What's wrong with saying off-key, or flat, or sharp? These terms are actually more helpful than saying "pitchy" because they actually have explain why the vocal sound is not correct. Off-key means that the singer is not on the correct key that the song was composed in (for example, singing in D major when the song is in C major). Flat means that the singer did not hit the exact note, but sang a half-note or full note lower than intended note (for example, singing a F note instead of an F sharp). Sharp is the opposite, meaning that the singer sang a half-note or full note higher than the intended note (singing a C sharp instead of a C).
There is no such thing as A major key for organ. The organ is a C melody instrument, just like a piano.
F# and C# are both black keys. If you find three keys and then two keys the C will be to the left of the two keys. the C# will be the first black key in the set of two. The F# will be the the first black key in he set of three.
