[CAUT] harpsichord seminars

[Jeff Tanner]

Interesting!  From what I've seen, they already make 5x what piano tuners make!

    Is there not a harpsichord/fortepiano organization similar to the PTG?

      Hendrik Broeckman of Hubbard used to go various places to do three or so day workshops with kit builders. You might contact Hubbard and see if they still do that.  
      I don't know of anything else of that sort (ie, a workshop or seminar). Bringing someone to work on the instrument, and hanging out, watching, getting some instruction is probably the best option. Or maybe going to where someone is doing some work. Kathy Perl of the San Francisco area or Anne Acker of Savannah are a couple I'd recommend (Kathy is mostly a performer, but does a fair amount of re-quilling and prepping work, and is willing to teach). Both can be found easily on the web. There are no doubt others as well.

        Hi List, 

        Does anyone know of a 1-2 week harpsichord workshop or seminar happening in the next year or so?  I fear my knowledge of harpsichords is limited and next year, we have an internationally known artist coming to UNL to perform on this and a forte-piano.  Fortunately the forte is in good shape (Thanks to Robert Murphy!!).  Our harpsichords are not in great shape and I need to learn quick! 

        Thanks 

        Paul
