May 4 - Bartolomeo Cristofori (The Musical Birthday Series)

 Bartolomeo Cristofori (4 May 1655 –27 January 1731) is credited with inventing the piano.



Hammered 

Sing the praise of Cristofori!
Loud and soft were missed before he
   Built an instrument with hammered strings

Shout to praise Bartolomeo!
Those who play the piano may know
     All the satisfaction that it brings.
