Some time ago I built this harpsichord for a very special person, and I would like to share her story.

An 86-year-old woman.

She has been a pianist all her life. She loves Baroque music and has been playing it for years, also together with two professional violinists.

But at a certain point she felt something very simple, and very strong:

that this musicโ€ฆ wanted to be played on a different instrument.

Not better.
Not more.

Justโ€ฆ more right.

And she decided to change.

At 86.

That stayed with me.

Because in this work I often see this moment.

When playing well is no longer enough.
When you start looking for something that is closer to what you really hear inside.

This harpsichord comes from that place.

It is a small instrument, but with a very clear presence. It works beautifully in chamber music, it supports, accompanies, and speaks with other instruments.

At the same time, it remains intimate, close to the hand, able to follow even the smallest gesture.

In the end, this is always the point.

Not the instrument itself.
But what it allows you to do.

Or maybe better:

how much it allows you to be honest with the music.

If you have ever experienced that moment, I would be really curious to hear what changed for you.

One of the things I love most about the French harpsichord school is its sound.

It is difficult to describe in words, but musicians usually recognise it immediately: a rich, powerful bass combined with a bright, almost silvery treble.

In this short excerpt, harpsichordist Jane Chapman performs a Courante by Louis Couperin on a French model instrument after the great Parisian makers Goermans and Taskin.

Moments like this remind me why building these instruments is so meaningful for me. When a musician sits at the keyboard and that sound fills the room, centuries of musical tradition suddenly feel alive again.

If you are curious about these instruments or about how they are built, feel free to write to me. I am always happy to talk about them.
