The piano is my favorite acoustic stringed musical instrument! Do you play it?
I don't, but I love listening to classical music because of how influenced by the piano it is.
Oh yes, the classical music norm of pianos was codified between 1550 and 1900!
Such a great time period in music, do you know when the piano was invented?
The term piano cam from painoforte in the early 1700s!
I had no idea, do you know who invented the piano?
Oh, yes, it was invented in Italy by Bartolomeo Cristofori 
How interesting, do you know more about that man?
