Design Analysis VII. Conclusion VIII. References IX. Appendix 2 I. Introduction Musical instruments have amused people around the world throughout the history. One of the most common instruments that is enjoyed by people today is the piano. Playing the piano is very intuitive; players can make notes simply by pressing keys, and the notes ascend from left to right. In our project, we decided to build an electric piano with analog circuits. The user interface was inspired by a circuit that we built in 6.101 which lights up an LED for 30 seconds after the user touches two electrodes. We thought that the idea behind this circuit was a clever one, but we wanted to do something more interesting than just turning on a light. Turning on the circuit by touching electrodes resembles playing notes by pressing keys on the piano. The electric piano, therefore, enables players to play music in a similar way to a real piano. The features of the electric piano were inspired by those of a real piano. The electric piano can play three octaves in total, and has a soft pedal to decrease the volume. The waveshapes can be changed to several different shapes to better mimic the sounds of the piano, if not quite perfectly.

  • Piano Manufacturing an Art and a Craft
    Nikolaus W. Schimmel Piano Manufacturing An Art and a Craft Gesa Lücker (Concert pianist and professor of piano, University for Music and Drama, Hannover) Nikolaus W. Schimmel Piano Manufacturing An Art and a Craft Since time immemorial, music has accompanied mankind. The earliest instrumentological finds date back 50,000 years. The first known musical instrument with fibers under ten sion serving as strings and a resonator is the stick zither. From this small beginning, a vast array of plucked and struck stringed instruments evolved, eventually resulting in the first stringed keyboard instruments. With the invention of the hammer harpsichord (gravi cembalo col piano e forte, “harpsichord with piano and forte”, i.e. with the capability of dynamic modulation) in Italy by Bartolomeo Cristofori toward the beginning of the eighteenth century, the pianoforte was born, which over the following centuries evolved into the most versitile and widely disseminated musical instrument of all time. This was possible only in the context of the high level of devel- opment of artistry and craftsmanship worldwide, particu- larly in the German-speaking part of Europe. Since 1885, the Schimmel family has belonged to a circle of German manufacturers preserving the traditional art and craft of piano building, advancing it to ever greater perfection. Today Schimmel ranks first among the resident German piano manufacturers still owned and operated by Contents the original founding family, now in its fourth generation. Schimmel pianos enjoy an excellent reputation worldwide. 09 The Fascination of the Piano This booklet, now in its completely revised and 15 The Evolution of the Piano up dated eighth edition, was first published in 1985 on The Origin of Music and Stringed Instruments the occa sion of the centennial of Wilhelm Schimmel, 18 Early Stringed Instruments – Plucked Wood Pianofortefa brik GmbH.

  • Transfer Learning for Piano Sustain-Pedal Detection
    Transfer Learning for Piano Sustain-Pedal Detection Beici Liang, Gyorgy¨ Fazekas and Mark Sandler Centre for Digital Music, Queen Mary University of London London, United Kingdom Email: fbeici.liang,g.fazekas,[email protected] Abstract—Detecting piano pedalling techniques in polyphonic music remains a challenging task in music information retrieval. While other piano-related tasks, such as pitch estimation and onset detection, have seen improvement through applying deep learning methods, little work has been done to develop deep learning models to detect playing techniques. In this paper, we propose a transfer learning approach for the detection of sustain- pedal techniques, which are commonly used by pianists to enrich the sound. In the source task, a convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained for learning spectral and temporal contexts when the sustain pedal is pressed using a large dataset generated by a physical modelling virtual instrument. The CNN is designed Melspectrogram and experimented through exploiting the knowledge of piano acoustics and physics. This can achieve an accuracy score of MIDI & sensor 0 127 0.98 in the validation results. In the target task, the knowledge learned from the synthesised data can be transferred to detect the Fig. 1. Different representations of the same note played without (first note) or sustain pedal in acoustic piano recordings. A concatenated feature with (second note) the sustain pedal, including music score, melspectrogram vector using the activations of the trained convolutional layers is and messages from MIDI or sensor data. extracted from the recordings and classified into frame-wise pedal press or release. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in acoustic piano recordings of Chopin’s music.
