Best Answer

The piano can belong to two different instrument families, this is due to the way the sound is produced. It can be considered a percussion instrument because it uses a mallet to hit a string to produce the sound. On the other hand, it can be considered a string instrument because a vibrating string is what actually produces the sound.
