A chordophone is a musical instrument that makes sound by way of a vibrating string or strings stretched between two points.It is one of the four main divisions of instruments in the original Hornbostel-Sachs scheme of musical instrument classification.What many would call string instruments are classified as chordophones. Violins, guitars, lyres, and harps are examples.owever, the word also embraces instruments that many westerners would hesitate to call string instruments, such as the musical bow and the piano (which, although sometimes called a string instrument, is also called a keyboard instrument and a percussion instrument).
The most common of these are the piano, organ, and various electronic keyboards, including synthesizers. Other keyboard instruments include celestas, which are struck idiophones operated by a keyboard, and carillons, which are usually housed in bell towers or belfries of churches or municipal buildings.he earliest keyboard instruments include the pipe organ, hurdy-gurdy, clavichord, and harpsichord.
