The heart looks into space to be away from earth.


The piano is an acoustic, stringed musical instrument invented in Italy by Bartolomeo Cristofori around the year 1700 (the exact year is uncertain), in which the strings are struck by wooden hammers that are coated with a softer material. (Modern hammers are covered with dense wool felt; some early pianos used leather.) It is played using a keyboard, which is a row of keys (small levers) that the performer presses down or strikes with the fingers and thumbs of both hands to cause the hammers to strike the strings.


Oud is a short-neck lute-type, pear-shaped stringed instrument (a chordophone in the Hornbostel- Sachs classification of instruments) with 11 or 13 strings grouped in 5 or 6 courses, commonly used predominantly in the music of the Western Asia and North Africa, including Saudi_Arabia, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Iraq, Palestine, Kuwait, Kurdistan, Yemen, Iran, Sudan, Armenia, Turkey, Classical, and Andalusian classic music.
