Piano

A piano is a large musical instrument that produces sound by striking strings with hammers when keys are pressed. It has 88 keys, which include both white and black keys, allowing for a wide range of musical notes. Pianos come in two main types: acoustic, which uses wood and metal, and digital, which uses electronic sounds. They are used in various musical genres and settings, from solo performances to orchestras. The piano is valued for its versatility, enabling players to express melodies, harmonies, and rhythms, making it a fundamental instrument in music education and composition.
