ServicesItalian HarpsichordEarly Italian harpsichords have very thin and ligh cases, making it very guitar like. This is a surprisingly very loud instrument with a fast attack. There is nothing better for continuo playing. It cuts through and provides that all important rhythmic and harmonic foundation like no other harpsichord. This was what you found playing with the operas and orchestras. In addition, this is the instrument for you if you are a fan of Italian baroque music such as Frescobaldi and Scarlatti! |
