How does the piano produce notes?

When the key is pressed, a felt covered wooden hammer for that note pivots forward and strikes the string or strings. That why the piano can be called a string instrument or a percussion instrument. The lower notes are singe strings, the middle strings have unison pairs, and the higher strings have three unison strings per note. When you release the key, a felt damper presses against the string to stop it from sounding. If you press the sustain pedal, a mechanism will keep the damper felt from pressing the string so the note will keep ringing.
