Early Keyboard Instruments covers a wide range of issues relating to the performance of keyboard instruments for music from the 1700s to 1900. It includes descriptions of the harpsichords, clavichords, pianos and other stringed keyboard instruments used by performers of the period, as well as technical aspects such as harpsichord registration, piano pedaling and keyboard fingering. Aspects of keyboard notation are covered, as well as articulation, embellishment, tempo flexibility and rubato. A substantial chapter is devoted to case studies, illustrating the practical application of the aspects of performance discussed in the rest of the book, whether on period instruments or a modern piano.
