Piano sheet music is a printed musical notation for piano. Before phonograph and radio became popular, sheet music was used by musicians to make their compositions known to the people. Many of these were piano sheet music since piano was the most popular musical instrument back then. In the late 19th century, piano sheet music became even more popular as parlor music became a massive trend in the US at the time.
