Celestas look like an organ but sound like a metallophone When played, hammers strike these bars and produce sound, making the celesta a percussion instrument with a keyboard action mechanism.

What are major chords and minor chords in keyboard?
The difference between Major and Minor chords is use of the 3rd note. If we'll use the third note flat it will become a minor chord and will produce a soft sound and if we'll use the third note normal the chord will be major.
