This catalogue completes the bibliographic survey of French
harpsichord music begun in Bruce Gustafson's French Harpsichord
Music of the Seventeenth Century: A Thematic Catalogue of Sources
with Commentary (Ann Arbor, 1979). It has entries for all of the
printed music known to have existed, over 230 volumes, and 150
manuscripts. It offers precise transcriptions of the title pages,
full contents, dating, locations, editions, facsimiles, evaluations
in the contemporary press, identifications of dedicatees, and
stylistic comments. The eighteenth-century French harpsichord
repertory is shown to extend from 1699 to about 1780, from Louis
Marchand's Pieces de clavecin to the four Symphonies concertantes
by Jean-Francois Tapray that juxtapose the harpsichord and piano as
solo instruments. All original keyboard music is included. Since
the introduction of the piano into France occurred during the
twenty years preceding 1780, this Catalogue includes some music
that may have been intended for that instrument rather than for the
harpsichord. This period of transition is discussed in full in the
Introduction.
