Harpsichord

A harpsichord is a musical instrument played by means of a keyboard. It produces sound by plucking a string when each key is pressed. The harpsichord was widely used in baroque music. It became less popular following the invention of the piano, but its distinctive sound is still used in contemporary music. Edit this Artist photo: Jens Lekman
