～What is a harpsichord?
The most important keyboard instrument of the 17th and 18th centuries. Harpsichord" is a German word. The term "harpsichord" is a German word, but it is also used in other languages such as "harpsichord" (English), "clavecin" (French), "gravicembalo" (Italian), "clave" (Western), and so on.
Although similar in appearance to the piano, the piano is a "percussion instrument" in which the strings are struck with hammers, while the harpsichord is a "string-repellent instrument" in which the strings are plucked with fingernails. Both the roots and the conception of the harpsichord are completely different. The harpsichord also has a mechanism called a "register" that allows the player to enjoy a variety of tone changes. In the age of Baroque music, the expression and timbre of each note were more important than the loudness and strength of the sound, so instruments such as the harpsichord played an active role.
