While much has been written about the repertoire of musical works
for pianoforte duet, ensemble literature for the other classical,
historical, and contemporary keyboard instruments has usually been
mentioned in only incidental ways. The goal of this bibliography is
to advance the playing and listening enjoyment of works written for
two or more players at the individual or combined instruments of
the clavichord, harpsichord, and organ. It offers a starting point
for future research, covering material from the 16th through the
20th centuries, and lists works that keyboard performers can use in
programs without involving other instrumentalists or singers. The
book begins with a brief introduction to clavichord, harpsichord,
and organ music throughout the centuries and is followed by the
representative listing of more than 325 works, arranged
alphabetically by the more than 220 composers covered. This
literature spans five centuries, several nationalities, many
different styles, a wide range of compositional techniques, and all
types of ensembles. The degree of difficulty varies widely, though
most are within the grasp of even modest performers. Wherever
possible, sources for all scores have been cited, while those out
of print have been cited to recordings or even addresses of
composers and arrangers. A series of appendixes provide further
useful information, including a discography, addresses of
libraries, and addresses of music publishers. This original
reference work will be a valuable asset to students of keyboard
pedagogy, as well as for professional musicians and music scholars.
