The harpsichord is similar in sound to the keyboard. On the whole, earlier harpsichords have smaller pitch ranges than later ones, although there are many exceptions. The largest harpsichords have a range of just over five octaves, and the smallest have under four.  The muselar is a box-shaped keyboard widely used in the late Renaissance & early Baroque era. Smaller versions of it were played rested upon the lap although larger models were placed upon a table or upon the floor.

The spinet is basically a smaller version of a harpsichord. The first known spinet known to harpsichord historian Frank Hubbard was made in 1631 by Hieronymus de Zentis. It was especially popular during the 18th century. The strings on a spinet are at about a 30 degree angle to the keyboard, going to the right.

The Spinet can be described as a keyed instrument of music resembling a harpsichord, but smaller, with one string of brass or steel wire to each note, sounded by means of leather or quill plectrums or jacks.

A harpsichord is a musical instrument played on the keyboard. When the player presses one or more keys, this triggers a mechanism, which plucks one or more strings with a small quill. Unlike the piano, a keyboard instrument invented in 1700, on which harder and softer presses of the keys produce louder and quieter sounds, on the harpsichord, harder or softer pressing of the keys does not change the volume or tone of the notes.

Harpsichord historian Frank Hubbard wrote in 1967, "the earliest [bentside] spinet known to me was made by Hieronymus de Zentis in 1631. It is quite possible that Zentis was the inventor of the type so widely copied in other countries." He further notes that the spinet in France was sometimes called the épinette à l'italienne, supporting an Italian origin.

In England, builders included John Player, Thomas Barton, Charles Haward, Stephen Keene, Cawton Aston, and Thomas Hitchcock.

The spinet was later developed into the spinettone ("big spinet") by Bartolomeo Cristofori (1655–1731), the inventor of the piano. The spinettone incorporated multiple choirs of strings, with a disposition of 1 × 8′, 1 × 4′, and used the same ingenious mechanism for changing stops that Cristofori had earlier used for his oval spinet. The spinettone was a local success among the musicians of the Medici court (Montanari 2002), and Cristofori eventually built a total of four of them.[1]

Spinets are occasionally made today, sometimes from kits, and serve the same purpose they always have, of saving money and space.

A clavichord is an European stringed keyboard used in the Renaissance, Baroque and Classical eras. It had brass/iron strings that were struck.
Clavichords were used as practice instruments or as an aid to compositions due to its soft sound that was to hard to be heard on its own.
The clavichord developed from monochord.

The harpsichord was an important keyboard instrument in Europe from the 15th to the 18th century. It is made from various woods for the body, brass for the strings, ivory for key tops and then they were held together by wooden screws and painted with a gesso finish.

What is a clavichord?

A clavichord, a European stringed keyboard musical instrument, was developed from the medieval monochord, an earlier keyboard.
It was used heavily from around 1400 to 1800, the renaissance, baroque and the classical eras, before being revived in the 20th century. Very similar to the Harpsichord, as the only difference is that the strings are struck on the clavichord, whereas the strings are plucked on the harpsichord.

What does it look like?

The clavichord is usually a rectangular shaped instrument with normally high decorated cases and lids. The strings ran horizontally across the keyboard.

What were they made from?

The strings on the clavichord are usually made from brass. The bridge of the instrument was usually constructed with wood. Other parts of the clavichord, like the keys and the blade were also normally constructed with brass.

According to piano historian Arthur Loesser (1954), the first spinet piano was offered to the public in May 1935, by an American manufacturer Loesser does not identify. The instrument was initially a success, being the only kind of piano that many people could afford in the depths of the Great Depression. (According to Loesser, the price could be less than $300, "about twenty-five percent lower than ... a small upright of 1924.") Loesser notes that the spinet was not entirely new, as very small pianos had been manufactured at various times in the 19th century.

After the 1930s, many people still continued to purchase spinets; a 1947 study showed that about 50 percent of all pianos sold during that production year were pianos strung vertically of 37 inches in height or less.[4] The spinet enjoyed decades of popularity after the 1930s, but production was halted in the early 1990s.

The harpsichord is a musical instrument played using a keyboard. When a key is hit, it causes a lever hits a string which vibrates and creates different notes. It is sort of like a piano but with two layer of keys instead of one. It was one of the most important keyboard instrument in Western Europe in the 17th century. The body of the harpsichord is usually made out of wood and the strings made out of brass. The keyboard are usually made out of plastic but in the past, the were sometimes made out of ivory.
Dynamic techniques: Some dynamics techniques include legato and staccato.
