Aclvichord is a small domestic keyboard
instrument of delicate tone developed in the
16th century on the principal of the
monochord. Notes are sounded by a metal blade
striking the string. The sound is clear and
precise, and a form of vibrato (bebung) is
possible by varying finger pressure on the
key.
