But it was not until about the 15th century C.E. that a marriage between stringed instruments (normally strummed or picked with fingers or struck with hammers or beaters) and the keyboard took place.
Taču tikai 15. gadsimtā stīgu instrumentiem (kurus parasti strinkšķināja ar pirkstiem vai spēlēja, sitot pa stīgām ar veserīšiem vai nūjiņām) sāka pievienot klaviatūru.
