[...] los pianos españoles usados durante aquella época respondían fundamentalmente a tres modelos: el piano de cola, que se utilizaba en audiciones públicas, pero también era el que poseía la clase social alta; el piano de mesa, que adoptaba una forma similar a la de un gran clavicordio y era utilizado en ambientes domésticos propios de la alta burguesía; y el piano vertical, de caja y tabla armónica mayor que la del de mesa, más decorativo, que poco a poco fue simplificando su aspecto e imponiéndose en el uso. [El] piano de mesa. [...] poseía una extensión de entre cinco octavas y media y seis, apagadores verticales, dos cuerdas por nota, generalmente un solo pedal –similar al pedal derecho actual, que levantaba todos los apagadores– y mecanismo inglés doble. 1, record 1, Spanish, - piano%20de%20mesa
