manual (music)









































a manual is a musical keyboard designed to be played with the hands, on an instrument such as a pipe organ, harpsichord, clavichord, electronic organ, melodica, or synthesizer. the term "manual" is used with regard to any hand keyboard on these instruments to distinguish it from the pedalboard, which is a keyboard that the organist plays with their feet. it is proper to use "manual" rather than "keyboard", then, when referring to the hand keyboards on any instrument that has a pedalboard.

the earliest known keyboard instrument was the ancient greek hydraulis, a type of pipe organ, invented in the third century bc. the keys were likely balanced and could be played with a light touch, as is clear from the reference in a latin poem by claudian (late 4th century), who says "magna levi detrudens murmura tactu . . . intent," that is “let him thunder forth as he presses out mighty roarings (shifa) with a light touch” ("paneg. manlio theodoro," 320–22). from its invention until the fourteenth century, the organ remained the only keyboard instrument. often, the organ did not feature a keyboard at all, but rather buttons or large levers operated by a whole hand. almost every keyboard until the fifteenth century had seven naturals to each octave.
