  • A pitch is a shrillness of a sound. It depends on the frequency of the sound. The frequency of a particular key in a piano is fixed. Therefore, the pitch of sound does not change if the same key is struck again.
  • However, the loudness of the sound can increase as the key is struck harder which causes a higher amplitude that results in a louder sound.
