Harpsichord |
Keyboard instrument used in Europe from the 1500s to the 1800s. The keys control plectrums which pluck the strings. It is particularly associated with Baroque music. Compared to later keyboard instruments such as the fortepiano, which strike rather than pluck strings, it lacks dynamic range. |
