	Piano - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The word piano is a short form of the word "pianoforte", which is in turn derived from the original Italian name for the instrument, gravicembalo col piano e forte.
		The Broadwood firm, which sent pianos to both Haydn and Beethoven, was the first to build pianos with a range of more than five octaves: five octaves and a fifth during the 1790s, six by 1810 (in time for Beethoven to use the extra notes in his later works), and seven by 1820.
		With the exception of the toy piano, these instruments are called "piano" by virtue of being keyboard instruments but are electric or electronic in nature, not acoustic.

	Toy piano - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The first toy pianos were made in the mid-19th century and were typically uprights, although many toy pianos made today are models of grands.
		Toy pianos ostensibly use the same musical scale as full size pianos, although their tuning in all but the most expensive models is usually very approximate.
		A pioneer of the toy piano is the German composer and pianist Bernd Wiesemann (*1938).

		Rather than hammers hitting strings as on a standard piano, the toy piano sounds by way of hammers hitting (Any of several chemical elements that are usually shiny solids that conduct heat or electricity and can be formed into sheets etc.) metal bars or rods which are fixed at one end.
		Toy pianos ostensibly use the same ((music) a series of notes differing in pitch according to a specific scheme (usually within an octave)) musical scale as full size pianos, although their tuning in all but the most expensive models is usually very approximate.

		This page lists articles about the benefits of piano lessons for adults and all ages, along with answers to questions like how to determine if your child is ready for lessons, how to choose a piano, and so on.
		To “prepare” a piano, composers change something about the piano’s physical structure to alter the sound, traditionally putting objects next to the strings, such as nuts and bolts or planks of wood, to interfere with and contribute to the sounds made by playing the piano.
		The Piano (1993) tells the story of a mute Scottish woman who marries a man from New Zealand and moves with her young daughter to be with him, even though he is not the kind man that she thought he was.

	SPP CD Review: David Lanz
		The pieces include “Leaves on the Seine,” “Courage of the Wind,” Water From the Moon,” and “Faces of the Forest.” “Nightfall” is still available in its original form, and also as a remastered set with “Heartsounds,” Lanz’s debut recording on Narada.
		Some of these pieces are quite different from anything Lanz has recorded before, and with “In Stillness” and the title track especially, he seems to have embraced the freedom from worrying about commercial success or trying to find a radio-friendly sound.
		As most of Lanz's solo piano recordings are, this album is introspective and calming, and, with a couple of exceptions, most of the arrangements are rather somber.

		The word piano is an abbreviation for pianoforte, Italian for soft-loud, referring to the ability of the piano to play notes at different volumes depending on how hard its keys are pressed.
		The inclusion in a piano of an extremely large piece of metal is potentially an esthetic handicap.
		Some varieties of plastic, incorporated into pianos in the 1950's and 1960's, were clearly disastrous, crystallizing and losing their strength after one or two decades of use.

		The work list from his dissertation (Thema's en variaties: Systematische tendensen in de compositietechnieken van John Cage, University of Amsterdam, 1996) is highly recommended for those wanting more detail, plus information about all the "non-works" I left out of my list.
		Some of the pieces I have listed as unpublished may very well be published by now, since C. Peters has been bringing a number of these titles out in the years since Cage's death.

		The pieces span a variety of types of pianos (prepared piano, toy piano, regular piano, bowed piano) and moods.
		From the incredibly beautiful ("In a Landscape" is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard) to the aggressive ("Ophelia") to the minimalist ("Music for Piano #2), this album spans quite a bit of the possibilities for piano music.
		I highly recommend it, but should caution you that you must have an open mind to enjoy this--this could be unlike you might have heard a piano played before (or imagined it could be played).
