Keyboardist
A keyboardist is a musician who plays keyboard instruments. Until the early 1960s musicians who played keyboards were generally classified as either pianists or organists. Since the mid 1960s, a plethora of new musical instruments with keyboards have come into common usage, requiring a more general term for a person who plays them. These keyboards include:electric pianos such as the Fender Rhodes and Wurlitzer electric pianoelectronic pianos such as the Roland Digital PianoHammond and other electric organ such as the Farfisa and Vox Continentalanalog synthesizers such as Moog and ARP synthesizersdigital electronic keyboards such as those produced today by RolandYamahaKurzweil and Korgsamplersmellotronclavinetpianetpiano (but see Pianist for a list of famous pianists)harpsichordreed organcelestaclavichordpipe organharmonium
