The King Of Instruments

(Week 15)
Hey guys, today, I am going to blog about some of the best songs you will ever hear on the piano. The piano is a musical instrument played with a keyboard, and was developed in the early 18th century. It is now one of the most popular instruments in the world.

The main types of piano are the grand piano and the upright piano.

I'm sure you can guess which is which!
