Yesterday, I generated a set of music notes using a push button and a buzzer. Sorry for the the late response.

Thanks so much @akshay.shanbhag for sharing this video. After watching the video, i get more ideas. Soon I will also join you in making this project at my home.
@akshay.shanbhag I edited your post, by insertinng the code inside the code block. In the editor, if you notice an icon in the shape of “</>”. whenever you share code, you can embed the code using this markup.
Dear all,
Here is the design of the circuit done in Tinkercad.
Notes
1] Top left of all switches connected to negative of breadboard
2] Negative of breadboard connected to ground
3] Top right of all switches connected to respective arduino pins
4] The top row of five push buttons corresponds to all black keys while the bottom row of eight push buttons corresponds to the white keys in an octave starting from C in proper order from left to right.
5] Positive terminal of buzzer connected to negative of breadboard
6] Negative terminal of buzzer connected to arduino pin.

Documentation for the Makers Space Workshop
Done by Akshay Shanbhag of IISER Pune
Topic- To generate a DIY music synthesizer for one octave
Day 1-
1] Generated music using a push button, in the form of
a] One notes
b] Multiple notes
when button is pressed
All done using Arduino board and IDE
Day 2
1] Assignment of different music notes to different push buttons.
2] Creation of a music octave starting from C and ending at C in increasing order of frequency. 13 push buttons and speaker used.
All done using Arduino board and IDE
Day 3
1] Prototype of music synthesizer of one octave- building begins.
2] All requisite components (wires, push buttons etc.) soldered to prototype board.
3] Outline of keyboard marked on foam board and cut.
Day 4
1] All components laid flat on another board.
2] Outline of keyboard attached to push buttons at the right positions.
3] Music system made independent of computer system by attaching battery and adapter in place of the Arduino USB cable.
4] Final prototype complete for one octave.

Day 3
1] Prototype of music synthesizer of one octave- building begins.
2] All requisite components (wires, push buttons etc.) soldered to prototype board.
3] Outline of keyboard marked on foam board and cut.
4] Design of prototype on Tinkercad, such that no wires cross each other.
Day 4
1] All components laid flat on another board.
2] Outline of keyboard attached to push buttons at the right positions.
3] Music system made independent of computer system by attaching battery and adapter in place of the Arduino USB cable.
4] Final prototype complete for one octave.
Regarding the circuit
1] 13 pushbuttons, wires, Adapter and 1 speaker used apart from a prototype board, Arduino Uno and solder gun. So 14 pins for digital input. This idea is hence an example of direct digital synthesis which is used to make music synthesizers such as these.
2] One side of all pushbuttons connected to ground
3] Another side of all pushbuttons connected to respective arduino pins
4] The top row of five push buttons corresponds to all black keys while the bottom row of eight push buttons corresponds to the white keys in an octave starting from C in increasing order of frequencies from left to right.
5] Positive terminal of buzzer connected to ground
6] Negative terminal of buzzer connected to arduino pin.
7] Following components soldered- All push buttons, wires to ground/ pushbuttons. These are soldered to the prototype board
8] 13 semitones = One octave, where semitone is the difference between a white key note and it’s corresponding sharp/ flat note.
9] Frequencies of each note are assigned in the code itself. For this octave the frequency of the first note is half of that of the last note.
10] Foam board used in making the keyboard outline (as it’s durable and of good quality) and stuck using two sided tape.
11] The sound of that note will go on as long as I keep the pushbutton corresponding to the note pressed.
