A standard piano has 88 keys—52 white and 36 black.
These 88 keys span just over 7 octaves, from A0 (the lowest note) to C8 (the highest). This range was established by Steinway in the 1880s and has become the industry standard.
Digital keyboards often have fewer keys—61 or 76—to make them more portable and affordable, though they can still cover the most commonly used range for most music.
