The piano, or piano, is a universally used keyboard instrument that captivates with its diversity and splendor. The piano is the only instrument that teaches the functioning of the two hemispheres of the brain independently of each other. The piano, as a kind of piano, is by far the most complex instrument (only the organ is more complicated). In order to play this wonderful instrument, you need to have incredible exposure and a huge reserve of patience.
The first instrument appeared at the beginning of the XVIII century in Italy. The piano replaced the previous no less popular harpsichord. The piano has many distinctive features, for example, the ability to change the strength of sound and play more smoothly, which was not the case with older versions of the instrument.
There are not so many varieties of the instrument itself: a piano and a piano. Their difference consists only in the size and position of the strings, on which the size depends: on the piano - horizontal, and on the piano - vertical. In general, the construction of the piano, in addition to the keys, includes strings and mallets, so it can partially be included in the category of strings and percussion. Also, the instrument has pedals, when pressed, you can make the sound longer or fainter.
The piano is also a rather bulky design. Also, the total voltage of all strings in the instrument reaches eight tons. Also, the instrument is a rather expensive pleasure. The most expensive of its kind is Crystal Piano - its price is $ 3.22 million. It's no secret that it’s hard to play. The hardest of thousands of pieces ever written for piano is the third concert of Rachmaninoff with the orchestra.
In order to achieve the desired sound, that is, to tune the piano, you need to periodically file the hammers that knock on the strings - this action changes the stiffness and tension in individual sections. Piano can be used both as a solo instrument and in a game with an orchestra. Learning to play an instrument takes from 5 to 7 years, and this is a rather complicated, but entertaining process, in which absolutely anyone can participate.
