It was revolutionary—a whole new dynamic in music!" 19th Century: Iron Frames and Modern Innovations A modern grand piano illustration marks this period.

This innovation, coupled with other improvements, gave us the robust, expressive piano of today." 20th Century–Today: The Digital Revolution An image of a digital keyboard symbolizes this era.
