Piano

-

 


I write about the piano because it's my favorite musical instrument.  So the piano is probably the most popular instrument of all instruments. It has very wide range of 88 keys. The piano forte was first invented by Bartolomeo Cristofori an Italian harpsichord builder. Later it was developed by John Broadwood. 

The piano has 3 basic pitch areas each of which has particular timber, low, middle, high. Sounds are made on the piano by felt hammer hitting steel strings. And  each note has 2 or 3 strings which are stretched over an iron frame. and a wooden sound board placed under the strings. it amplify the sounds

When I play the piano, I feel like I'm in the heaven. Because when I play the piano I feel like my pain, stress are go away from me.  So the piano is the best medicine for me to release all of my pains. And also piano is the best instrument that can speak to the humans heart.
