CHROMATIC PIANO
Unusual musical effects are produced by a chromatic piano now being demonstrated in Germany. The halftone keys, instead of being black and raised above the level of the others, are white and are placed side by side with the full-tone keys. The keys are disposed in six short ranks in place of the usual one long row, so that the player can span two octaves at once and may produce the same tone simultaneously on three different rows. The chromat.ic piano, invented fifty years ago, is only now being built commercially.
