Code Golf: Piano


The challenge

The shortest code by character count to output a part of a piano keyboard starting from input note in a given length.

Input will be composed of a note ([ACDFG]#|[A-G]) to start printing the keyboard from and a positive number representing length of keys to print including the first note.

The first key should be printed in full - if it has a left sharp key, it will be cut, same for when the start key is sharp, the left key will be cut as well.

A Sharp key is not counted, only white keys.
