The piano got its name, originally "pianoforte," from its wide dynamic range.
The instrument was actually first named "clavicembalo col piano e forte" (literally, a harpsichord that can play soft and loud noises). This was shortened to the now common name, "piano." The first piano was created by Bartolomeo Cristofori.
"The piano is a stringed keyboard instrument in which the strings are struck by wooden hammers that are coated with a softer material." The piano is a keyboard instrument that produces sound by striking strings with hammers, characterized by its large range and ability to play chords freely.
