I was just wondering if it was at all possible to do a sforzando on a piano? As far as I can see, there is no possible way but some of you might know!

Thank you!

You can't crescendo on a note or chord on the piano, either, but it is possible to get a bit more tone by adding in sustain pedal after the note has been struck - you get sympathetic vibrations from the other strings which add to the tone. Only useful on rare occasions, but an interesting effect.
