Written by fourteen leading experts in the field, this Companion
covers almost every aspect of the harpsichord - the history of the
instrument, tuning systems, the role of the harpsichord in
ensemble, its use in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and
includes separate chapters devoted to Domenico Scarlatti, J. S.
Bach and Handel. Chapters featuring almost every national style are
written by authors with close connections to the countries about
which they are writing, including England, The Netherlands,
Germany, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, France, Italy, Portugal and
Spain, as well as the less extensive harpsichord traditions of
Russia, the Nordic and Baltic countries, and colonial Spanish and
Portuguese America. With musical examples, illustrations, a
timeline of the harpsichord, and an appendix of composers, reliable
editions and original sources, this book is for all who love the
harpsichord, or want to learn more about it.
