What instrument is considered both a string and a percussion instrument?
Piano.
Which instrument has characteristics of both string and percussion instruments?
piano
Why isn't the piano a percussion istrument?
It is. It's considered both string and percussion because of the mallets that strike the inside of the piano to make sound (percussion), and the strings inside of the piano (strings).
Which type of percussion-instrument is a pianoforte?
A piano is both a percussion instrument and a string instrument. Inside a piano, tiny hammers strike strings to make pitches. It is a string instrument in that the strings are what vibrate to make the sound, but it is a percussion instrument in that it has a keyboard and strikes to make sound.
Is the piano a member of the percussion or string family?
both because piano uses strings but to make it sound hammers inside the piano hit the strings as you press the key
What music family is the piano?
It's percussion because the strings are hit with hammers. It can be classified as a percussion or string instrument.The piano is in the percussion family because the sound is generated from little hammers and wires inside. When you press a piano key, the hammer hits the wire, producing sound. The action of the hammer hitting the wire is what classifies it as a percussion instrument, like when hit hit a mallet on a bell kit.
Is a piano percussion and a string?
It is considered both. because a piano produces its sounds through the vibration of strings inside it. but in order for those strings to vibrate, little hammers inside the piano hit it every time you press on a key.
What classification is a piano?
Piano is from the Percussion Family. Other instruments in that family are:oCelesta oHarp oTimpani oSnare oSymbols oGlockenspiel The Percussion Family is more international than any other section in the orchestra. Just look at the variety of instruments! With most instruments in the Percussion Family people don't know who invented them or when. In ancient drawings it shows a timpani or African drums being played. But still, no one really knows.
Why is the piano both a percussion instrument and stringed instrument?
Piano is a percussion instrument as every thing about it is percussive. It is non contact (you dont actually touch the strings in conventional piano playing which are the source of the sound) and the strings are hit with hammers which are like mallets to the marimba or vibes. People may think it is a string intrument because the sound is from a string and it would be if the string were plucked or bowed. The piano sounds more like a percusion instrument as well if you compare it to a marimba/vibes/xylophone... and then to a cello or violin,
What type of instrument is piano?
Piano is a tough instrument to categorize. Some say "percussion" because you create sound by striking the instrument. Some say "string" because vibrating strings is how the sound is made. If I had to choose between them I'd choose "string instrument" because the reasoning for it being a percussion instrument, IMO, is not very sound. Yes you strike the instrument to make sound, but it's not you making the sound - it's the hammer striking the strings much like the dulcimer. Apply the "percussion" argument to other keyed instruments and you can see more clearly how it's a misnomer. Is the organ a percussion instrument because you're striking the keys? And then there's electronic keyboards - are they percussion instruments? See how we're getting really far out on a limb to rationalize calling piano a percussion instrument. This, and the other examples I gave, is why I like to use "keyboard instrument" as a classification all its own. It allows for an accurate description of how you make sound with the instrument, much like the definition of percussion (striking a membrane or solid object). I like to tell people that if they don't like the idea of "inventing" a new category, then call it a string instrument because that's what it is! :)
What music family is a guitar from?
Answer 1:It is part of the Percussion Family, as do most instruments. Anything you bang on or hit, or strum at all, is part of the Percussion Family.Answer 2:"Most instruments" do not belong to the percussion family. However, many (such as the piano) do belong to more than one family. The acoustic guitar is regarded as belonging to both the percussion and the string family. It earns its position in the string family as its strings are plucked. Stringed instruments are played by plucking, bowing or striking the string.
What musical family is a piano in?
The traditional piano is considered a percussion instrument. This is because little hammers strike the strings inside. However, other keyboard instruments work differently; the organ is not a percussion instrument, for example.
