keyboard instrument

After getting out of bed, Staier goes to one of his keyboard instruments and sight-reads a piece or practices a tricky spot.

The instrument commonly called the "piano" by the way, was originally called a "pianoforte" because it could play dynamics, unlike earlier popular keyboard instruments like the harpsichord and spinet.

He decided he wanted to study all of the keyboard instruments: piano, organ, harpsichord, synthesizer … carillon.

The slight keyboard instrument painted green on the stage wasn’t imposing.

He soon became a master of the bulky two-tiered keyboard instrument known for its rich range of expression and its almost unlimited palette of tonal colors.
