Abstract

The present invention discloses a novel thumb piano, sounding piano pieces are installed on a membrane structure or drum skin, the thumb piano comprises a piano body whole body and a piano support fixed to the piano body whole body, and elastic pieces used for playing music are installed on the piano support; the piano body whole body comprises a drum skin arranged on the top surface and a main support which is fixed on the lower side of the drum skin and used for supporting the drum skin.
