i play piano.
[{"role": "system", "content": "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 hammers. 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. The word \"piano\" is a shortened form of \"pianoforte\", the Italian term for the early 1700s versions of the instrument, which in turn derives from \"gravicembalo col piano e forte\" and \"fortepiano\". The Italian musical terms \"piano\" and \"forte\" indicate \"soft\" and \"loud\" respectively, in this context referring to the variations in volume (i.e., loudness) produced in response to a pianist's touch or pressure on the keys: the greater the velocity of a key press, the greater the force of the hammer hitting the strings, and the louder the sound of the note produced and the stronger the attack. The first fortepianos in the 1700s had a quieter sound and smaller dynamic range. An acoustic piano usually has a protective wooden case surrounding the soundboard and metal strings, which are strung under great tension on a heavy metal frame.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I was fascinated when as a kid I saw an open piano. To my surprise when you pressed the keys there would be movement in some strings inside of the piano. All done by levers."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I love piano! I wish i could play it"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Me too but I got a little bit confused with the three pedals. Sustaining pedal, sostenuto pedal and soft pedal? Way to many pedals!"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Yes! I would probably play keyboard lol no pedals "}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I totally get you, seems easier. Sometimes pianos have six or model pedals but now they usually only have three. Back in the day they went overboard with it!"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Wow! Even 3 is too much for me :) I would also like to learn to play saxophone"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I don't think saxophones are that versatile as a digital piano but still cool. With the digital pianos you have advantages like you can play different sounds, even the sax! Some of them still feel like a real piano."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I agree with that. I just really like the way saxophone sounds. My husband used to play it"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Did he play the tenor or the alto saxophone?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "alto saxophone. He wants to buy a saxophone sometime soon but they are so expensive"}]
