METAL-TIME Grande Pianola music piano model kit
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. He is credited for switching out the plucking mechanism with a hammer to create the modern piano in around the year 1700.

Throughout mankind's existence, music has been a way for expressing our emotions. Touching people personally, whether sitting at home listening to their favorite songs, or at a concert.
Initially, music was very basic. Early man used all types of objects as instruments. Whether for percussion, or string sounds, music was simple, and very primitive. It took 1,000s of years for music to develop. The Clavichord was created in the 14th century, followed by the Harpsichord, in the 15th century. Both lead the way to the Piano, which was created by Bartolomeo Cristoforo, in Italy, in the 17th century. It was then that music took on elegant complexities.
