A tangent piano is an early type of piano that uses metal tangents to strike the strings, rather than hammers. Each tangent is a small, metal rod that makes contact with the strings to produce sound. The instrument has a distinct, clear tone and a more direct sound compared to modern pianos. The tangent piano was developed in the 18th century and is known for its unique sound characteristics and historical significance. It is often used in performances and recordings to achieve an authentic sound for music from its period.
