Pianoforte

Sound of the World

The pianoforte, known today as the piano, originated in Italy in the early 18th century. It was invented by Bartolomeo Cristofori and is unique because it allows players to control the volume of sound by varying the pressure on the keys. This innovation made it distinct from its predecessor, the harpsichord.
