It was extremely moving to hear this old instrument being played. Musical instruments are alive when they are played, and this is a wonderful thing with a 400-year-old specimen. I felt a sense of connection to the music I love.

many men dead who played it but its still alive

@@jerrytheracecardriver1100 Not depressing at all. Glorious that it survived to give us and generations to come,pleasure. Depressing is the thought of this clavichord getting destroyed.

It's amazing to see so many clavichords all together in the same room! 🎹 Interesting and very well played music! 🎶🎼

How many people have played that instrument since it was built 400 years ago, unbelievable. The fact that it has survived that time is even more so. Regards from South Africa

Would love to hear this little gem with better audio. Thank you for the lovely demonstration!

CHE MERAVIGLIA!!! IL MIO MONDO!!!

A fantastic combination of beautiful playing on a beautiful instrument. Thanks for sharing this!

ANTONIO CABEZON { CASTRILLO MATAJUDIOS 1510-1566 MADRID } ORIGINAL CLAVICHORD C. MIREY COLECTION - NORBERTO BROGINI. Une merveille ce CLAVICHORD vraiment trop beau , une pièce de collection très grande interprétation, grandiose bravo. Merci pour ce moment de musique de la renaissance avec CABEZON qui est Eternel video magnifique.

Nice restoration. Nice sound. Thanks for sharing.

I'm surprised that the sound was as loud and rich as it was, clavichords aren't known for having a large, rich sound like that

From the level of the noise on the recording, I think the volume was turned up a lot here so we could hear it better. In the room I'd imagine it was very quiet. Well, that, or there's a small plane taking off in the next room ;)

Such a master piece of equipment, just beauty!

What a treasure trove!

I used to tune and maintain them all when I worked there. I think this was perhaps biggest sequence of working clavichords in any public museum, but it has all been changed now.

Как же это красиво...😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Wow. Amazing sound from that old piece of wood. Thanks.

Wonderful collection of instruments and a great performance!

And that someone has been able to keep it tuned and playable!

Thank you for keeping them alive, immortal

Thank you so much for posting this music. A excellent playing on a excellent instrument.bravissimo

Gorgeous sounding instrument

The historian in me just got chills looking at those.

Very interesting !

Very charming clavichord!

Marvelous, thank you!

I like the all brown keys! ❤👍

Procurei por esse som por um longo tempo! E eu quero uma coleção de instrumentos cravísticos como essa!!!

Fabulous!!!!!

awesome :D

OG clavichord

Wow!!!

Pretty

Very interesting. I wonder- Bach played Clavichord, but was it that small? How could he play the Goldberg Sonatas on it? It sounds like a big lute, but the damp sound is a little unsatisfactory. The clavichord must be very old and still works - thank you.

There were (and still are) other kinds of clavichords, from later periods, the 18th c., like the bigger, louder, Saxon clavichord. Search them and you will find pics.

Goldberg Variations are meant for the Harpsichord, not the Clavichord.

sounds like a classical guitar.

did you play and video the anonymous 1700 at 1.38 as well?

Imagine if they released a Bach Album recorded professionally on this.

That serves as a damper.

Are those wooden keys or is the ivory just very very oxidized?

I was wondering what the name of the two songs that man is playing. If anyone knows please, talk to me.

If you didn't have the red cloth, both sides of the string would sound at the same time.

whats the difference between the clavichord and the harpsichord?

@DashieDasher

8 жыл бұрын

Mary V If I understand correctly, there are a few differences between harpsichord and clavichord. The clavichord is fretted, meaning that several keys hit the same string in different places to produce the notes one step up or down from the adjacent key, this means also that some keys cannot be pressed at the same time. With a harpsichord each key has it's own set of strings. On a harpsichord, the strings are plucked rather than hit, whereas on the clavichord the strings are hit directly by brass heads. Clavichords were much more portable and much lighter than the harpsichords as well.
