A must for harpsichord lovers and players,
By
This review is from: Early Keyboard Instruments: The Benton Fletcher Collection at Fenton House (Hardcover)
I played on the instruments at Fenton House almost every weekend for three years 1969-1971. My last visit was a few years ago: Ms Waitzmann, author of this book and curator of the collection, kindly tuned many of the instruments and we spent a few hours going from one instrument to another, followed by a group of visitors. It was an unforgettable experience.This book is very valuable, not only as a most authoritative and beautifully produced catalogue, but also for its excellent and comprehensive introduction, with excellent 3D drawings and fully accessible to the layman. Last but not least, the book includes an Audio CD, with professional-grade recordings of the instruments in the collection played by Terence Charlston. Summarising, this fine achievement by Ms Waitzmann is a must-have book-plus-record for all people interested in the harpsichord, from lovers of the instrument to players including professionals.
