The term claviorganum in its strictest sense refers to the combination of a harpsichord (or other harpsichord type instrument) and an organ , although later could also be used to refer to a combination of a piano and organ. Michael Praetorius describes the claviorganum in his Syntagma Musicum of 1619 as " ... a clavicymbal, or some other symphony, in which a number of pipes is combined with the strings.
