History (Wikipedia):
From where we get Soprano/ Psaltery- Small history below:
Our knowledge about the instrument is from Wikipedia. As per Wikipedia, we shared this small history to let our customers know about the history. A psaltery (Greek: ψαλτήρι) (or sawtry, an archaic form) serves as a fretboard-less box zither (a simple chordophone); indeed, people consider it the archetype of the zither and dulcimer. Moreover, plucked keyboard instruments such as the harpsichord also drew inspiration from it. Typically, craftsmen design its resonance box to be trapezoidal, rectangular, or, in some cases, in the form of a “pig’s head,” and they often richly decorate it.
Ancient Greeks, for instance, created the psaltery (epigonion), a harp-like stringed instrument. Moreover, the Ancient Greek word ψαλτήριον (psaltḗrion) means “stringed instrument, psaltery, harp” and comes from the verb ψάλλω (psállō), which means “to touch sharply, to pluck, pull, twitch.” In addition, in the context of the strings of musical instruments, it refers to “to play a stringed instrument with the fingers, and not with the plectrum.” Furthermore, craftsmen originally made the psaltery from wood and, consequently, relied on natural acoustics for sound production.
The King James Bible uses “psaltery” and its plural “psalteries” to translate several words from the Hebrew Bible; however, their meaning is now unknown. While the Greek instruments were harps, psaltery came to mean instruments that were strung across a resonating wood box. This provides a basic history of the instrument.
