According t the Piano History Centre, the piano was invented by Bartolomeo Cristofori, in Florence Italy, around 1707. He called it "gravicembalo col piano e forte". He made a somewhat similar instrument called Arpicembalo by 1698.
The upright piano was invented by William Southwell of Dublin.
The piano was developed in Padua, Italy by Bartolomeo Cristofori (1655-1731)
Stride and Noveltty piano were developed from the Ragtime. That was about1920. Stride piano came up in Harlem, NY where black pianists, which hadn`t a musical graduation, began to improvise the Rags and so created an own style. Novelty piano developed about the same time in Chicago where only white pianist, which had a highly musical graduation and which were influenced by the european music-styles began to create their own style. Stride and Novelty piano sound very similar so they can be called the first Jazz-styles.
the first piano was invented by bartolomeo cristofori
I believe the piano started off as a monophonic stringed instrument, like a harp. The first pianos made sounds by the strings being mechanically plucked like a harpsichord. The placement of the harp on a resonating sound board and the eventual adaption of hammers hitting the strings gave birth to the piano and it's cloth covered hammers gave it a soft tone as well as robust tones, hence the true name- 'piano forte' meaning 'soft loud'

No. The Piano has been developed from the 1157s, which was then known as a clavichord. Upgrades of the Clavichord was constantly being introduced, in the 1600s, a Harpsichord was made. It was from the harpsichord that the Piano was first designed, and came around in the Classical/Romantic period.

When the piano was developed by Christofori in the 18th century, it was developed as a fully chromatic instrument. Thus it had both "black" and "white" keys.
