A '''piano''' (short for pianoforte, which is Italian for "soft loud") is a stringed musical instrument played by means of a mechanical linkage to a [[keyboard]]. Pressing the keys down causes hammers to strike the strings. It was referred to by famous composer Ludwig van Beethoven as "the God of all instruments". Franz Liszt famously stated, "Why do you need an orchestra when you have a grand piano with 88 keys?"
