The clavichord’s tone was metallic and never powerful;【C5】______, because of the variety of tone possible to it, many composers found the clavichord a sympathetic instrument for concert use, but the character of the tone could not be【C6】______save by mechanical or structural devices.
The piano was【C7】______ in the early eighteenth century by a harpsichord maker in Italy (though musicologists point out several previous instances of the instrument). This instrument was called a piano e forte (soft and loud), to indicate its dynamic flexibility; its strings were【C8】______by a recoiling hammer with a felt-padded head. The wires were much heavier in the earlier instruments. A【C9】______of mechanical improvements continuing well into the nineteenth century, including the introduction of pedals to sustain tone or to soften it, the perfection of a metal frame and steel wire of the finest quality, finally produced an instrument【C10】______of many tonal effects from the most delicate harmonies to an almost orchestral fullness of sound, from a liquid, singing tone to a sharp, percussive (打击乐器的) brilliance.
