Usage notes
- Although Klavier is the commoner word in all contexts, it would not be unusual to say of a renowned pianist:
Er ist ein Meister am Piano. ― He’s a master of the piano. However, it would be likely to sound odd if the word were used in non-professional contexts, such as referring to a piano in one’s living-room or to one’s child’s piano lessons.
