Answer 1

Answer:

The piano was invented by Bartolomeo Cristofori (1655-1731) of Italy. Cristofori was unsatisfied by the lack of control that musicians had over the volume level of the harpsichord.

Answer 2

Answer and Explanation:

Just as the Renaissance was winding down, about three hundred years ago, there was a harpsichord maker in Italy named Bartolomeo Cristofori. He wanted to make an instrument that could be loud like a harpsichord, but also touch-sensitive like a clavichord, so he took an idea from the hammered dulcimer and built an instrument that would fling a soft-covered hammer at a string whenever a key was pressed. The harder the key was pressed, the harder the hammer flew. After the string was struck, the hammer fell back to let the string vibrate freely. So long as the key was held down, the string would vibrate, but as soon as the key was released, a damper would quiet the string. This was a very complicated piece of machinery, so ingenious that it is still in use–with only small modifications–in our pianos today.

Cristofori named his instrument “un cimbalo di cipresso di piano e forte” which is Italian for “a keyboard made of cypress wood with soft and loud.”Bach called the instrument a “piano et forte,” (“soft and loud”) which is much shorter than Cristofori’s original name. As time went on, the instrument was known as the “pianoforte,” the “fortepiano,” and now, in modern times, we simply call this dynamic instrument a “piano.”
