Correct answer: Bartolomeo Cristofori

Bartolomeo Cristofori of Padua, Italy, invented the instrument we know as the piano. He called his creation the "gravicembalo col piano e forte" (harpsichord with soft and loud), which was eventually shortened to just piano. Remarkably, three of his original pianos still survive today, with the oldest residing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
