Extractions: Instruments M arc D ucornet In this catalog you will find instruments with the designations 'after', meaning that they are based as closely as possible on the originals, or 'School', meaning that they are designed by us but fall within an aesthetic and stylistic framework defined by a master of the period. Our desire to base our instruments on antiques indicates not passive dependence but rather a commitment to the continuation of a great tradition. At the same time, we create protoptypes of harpsichords with composite materials for the Centre National de Recherche Scientifique. Once your instrument's principal characteristics have been determined you will have time to ponder details, and discuss the type of ornamentation you would like with our painter. In its last stage of production every instrument passes through my hands for final regulation and thorough inspection, so that I can be assured that it is truly finished in every detail. Of course the instrument that we deliver to you will continue to mature under your fingers. But together we will follow its development from its first to last notes until it reaches the full maturity of its predecessors, all the while enriching your life immeasurably.

http://www.bigduck.com/primer.html

Extractions: Bookmarks The harpsichord is that family of keyboard instruments which are plucked, not struck, by the key mechanism. It has served as the major string keyboard instrument for substantially longer than its descendant the piano, and still at the end of the millenium is much in use, both in early music performance and in various new applications. There are perhaps three distinctions which help catagorize the instruments. There are national schools (chiefly Flemish, Italian, French, German, and English), time frame (conveniently thought of by century - 16th, 17th, 18th, and 20th), and instrument type (harpsichord, spinette, virginal, but with several rich and strange variations, such as the lautenwerk or the clavicyntherium). The history of the harpsichord is somewhat odd in that it contains a dramatic hiatus: harpsichord making simply died in the nineteenth century (a victim, some will argue, of Romanticism) and was only revived again in the twentieth. At first the revival engendered some very different kinds of instruments indeed, and it is only in the second half of the century that we find the emphasis again on early styles of building. We are able then to make the additional distinction between historic, revival, and modern instruments.

http://dalyharpsichords.com/keybd/

Extractions: This harpsichord has a compass of GG/BB-d''', with one split sharp in the bass short octave to provide a low E-flat. Pitched at A-392. The case is of Oregon black walnut and Port Orford cedar, with cedar of Lebanon framing; the instrument is strung in Malcolm Rose "A" iron wire, and quilled in Celcon. It sports carved and gilded keyfronts, ebony naturals and solid bone sharps. Its recording debut, on a Wildboar CD of David Cates playing the French Suites of J.S. Bach, which came out in the fall of 2001. In describing Wildboar's J.S. Bach: Harpsichord Music played by David Cates on the 1995 predecessor to this instrument, the late Joseph Spencer has written: "Owen Daly's Vaudry has been in existence for several years, and has garnered quite a reputation as a fabulous-sounding harpsichord. The timbre is rich and nutty, with lots of character. The bass is somewhat gruff and not at all boomy like later French instruments, while the entire band has a distinctive oboe-like accent that colors all music played upon it. Mr. Cates was so taken with the instrument he ordered one made, with the proviso he would have the choice of the new instrument or the one used on this recording. I believe that listeners will applaud this courageous choice of instrument- the result is a recital of wonderful, exciting sound, very tangy and refreshing to the ear."

Extractions: Authorized Agent exclusively for THE PARIS WORKSHOP of Marc Ducornet My shop provides historically based finished instruments, performs restorations, repairs and instrument completions. I specialize in quilling with celcon for a dramatic increase in performance, sound and reliability. I have completed many unfinished instruments for clients who have not chosen to do so themselves for whatever reason. Repair and restoration work is performed with the intention of rendering instruments "concert" ready. My clients here in the arid Western United States including the Aspen Music Festival and Institute, Denver School of the Arts and the University of Northern Colorado have the advantage of purchasing an instrument made from wood that has acclimated to a drier climate. This insures stability of tuning and lessens the need for frequent and costly adjustments to the action. Instruments brought here from the wetter coastal areas and Europe invariably develop numerous splits and cracks in the soundboard and case. Conversely however, when I send an instrument from here to a moister environment, the wood merely expands a bit but does not break. You won't need to create a climate controlled room for your harpsichord. Please call ahead for an appointment.
What Are Historical Keyboard Instruments
The harpsichord family includes large, wingshaped instruments with one keyboard(occasionally two, and very rarely three) at the short end, as well as smaller
http://www.mhks.org/whatare.htm

Extractions: Keyboard instruments, as the name suggests, are musical instruments which are played by means of a keyboardthat is, the pitches to be sounded are selected by means of a set of levers (the keyboard), which is manipulated by the fingers, hands, or feet of the player. Under the fingers and/or feet of a sensitive performer, the keyboard may also be used to control dynamics, phrasing, shading, and other elements of expression, depending on the design and inherent capabilities of the instrument. Keyboard instruments fall principally into two distinct categories: stringed instruments (pianos, harpsichords, clavichords, etc.) and wind instruments (organs, harmonia, regals, accordions, etc.). Other types of keyboard instruments include celestas (struck metal bars), carillons (tower chimes), and non-acoustic instruments, such as the various electronic organs, synthesizers, and keyboards which were designed to imitate the sound of acoustic keyboard instruments. The most familiar keyboard instrument of our time (disregarding the various electronic instruments of relatively recent invention) is the piano, with which virtually everyone is familiar. However, many are surprised to learn that the modern piano is actually only the current end product of a long period of evolution, dating back to the first years of the 18th century. In its current form it is a product of the 20th century, and is far removed in both sound and appearance from the "pianos" of Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven. In fact, the modern piano is significantly different from even the 19th-century pianos of Liszt, Chopin, and Brahms. While it is fine to play music of these composers on our modern piano or organ, it must be remembered that the resulting sound, as well as the technique used to produce it, will be different from what would have been experienced in the composer's own time.
