Piano-Keyboard

The history of the piano dates back to the 14th century, with the development of instruments with keyboards. The organ, which sends bursts of air through pipes to make sound, was the precursor to the piano. Craftsmen improved upon the organ to create the clavichord, which first appeared in the 14th century and became popular during the Renaissance Era.   

Created in Italy in around 1500, the harpsichord appeared and later spread to France, Germany, Flanders, and Great Britain. When a key is pressed, a plectrum attached to a long strip of wood called a jack plucks the string to make music.

This system of strings and soundboard, and the overall structure of the instrument resemble those that can be found in today's piano.
