1753. I assume a claviscord does not qualify as a piano? The year is just my guess.

would have to be before that,, motzart and the rest of "them" was before that,, 1550 (ish)?

I am unfamilar with a claviscord and my dictionary says it was the forerunner to the piano so I am assumeing it is not a piano. The oldes known piano that exists today is in a museum in Vienna.~

Cab, the piano question is not answered yet, I did not ask who invented it but when was the oldest know to exist manufactured. I put in the inventors name and date to prevent useless guesses.
