Features: Learning music often involves the piano. The reason behind this is intriguing. The piano, with a history of three hundred years since its invention, seems to represent the glorious peak of this art form. Originally reserved for noble households, it has since become a symbol of the middle class in modern times and has entered the homes of ordinary people. Music has become more widespread with the piano, and in turn, the piano has become a symbol of music. However, aside from the external sociological reasons, the piano as an instrument has sufficient intrinsic reasons to represent music. In terms of "range," the modern piano's 88 keys cover all musical notes from low to high, left to right, leaving other wind, string, and percussion instruments far behind.
