Types of Pianos
Before you get started online, it’s always good to know a little about the instrument you’ll be learning. The piano is a keyboard instrument, meaning it is played using a keyboard—a row of levers which you press, in various combinations, with your fingers. The most well-known keyboard instruments are electronic keyboards, organs and, of course, the piano. The invention of the piano can be credited to Bartolomeo Cristofori, but the precise date is something of a mystery. Pianos have come a long way over the years, but their mechanisms have mostly stayed the same.
- The Grand Piano: Full-size grand pianos are the type you see in concert halls, as they have a particularly beautiful quality of tone. Smaller grand pianos are occasionally used in teaching studios, or for domestic use. These types of pianos have horizontal frames and strings. The longer the string, the richer the sound.
- The Upright Piano: These pianos are more compact, as both the frame and the strings are vertical. These pianos are better suited for domestic use because of their stature, taking up considerably less space. They are also much less expensive, so are used more widely.
- Specialized Piano: There are many types of specialized piano, including the toy piano, the pedal piano and the silent piano.
- Electric, Electronic, and Digital Pianos: The electric piano became popular in the 1960s and 1970s, particularly in the genres of jazz fusion, rock and funk. With greater technological advances these pianos are changing more rapidly, gaining more features and sounds over time.

Piano Tiles was launched in 2014 by Umoni Studio. It is a single-player mobile game that features various modes to alter gameplay and sound. In the game, the player is only allowed to hit the black tiles as they appear, resulting in a piano sound. If a white tile is hit the player loses the game, and an off-tune note is played. Within a month, this game was the most downloaded app on Android and iOS.
Rhythm Sprout is a single-player game released in 2023 by tinyBuild. It is a fast-paced rhythm action game with original music.
